This card was made for Creative Creases #21 card challenge whose theme was "Anything Goes", but does require that you use some type of "fancy fold". I chose to use Jennifer McGuire's Pop-Up Panel Card fold whose video tutorial can be found at: https://www.jennifermcguireink.com/2...video-hop.html A photo of the balloon popped open is shown in an adjacent post.
The balloons were die cut circles with a tiny hand-cut triangle glued to the bottom to which I tied linen threat as the "strings".
Jennifer stamped here front panel, but I chose to emboss it with a birthday embossing folder I have in my stash. I cut the slit for the pop-up feature using a rectangular banner die.
I am rating the difficulty as a "3" out of a possible "5" because creating the mechanism is so easy. I cut a 1"x8" strip for the mechanism that was scored at 2" and 2-1/2". Be sure and use Scor-Tape or some other brand of super strong double-sided tape to attach the two balloons to the mechanism.
