This is the fold selected for the March Fancy Fold swap. I found this idea on Pinterest and also in the gallery combining the two to create this card. The birthday greeting came from a Lawn Fawn set Wavy Sayings and matching die. I used Judikins acetate sheets to lift the balloons on the box shelves. I found this to be quite challenging. I messed up so many times securing the box shelves in place. I am sure there is an easier way as I have made box cards before, but this one really stumped me.

Fabulous card. You might feel like you messed up, but the result is really wonderful, and no one would ever guess. It looks like an entire balloon festival.
The picture does not do this card justice. It is an absolutely stunning card. I am the delighted recipient of this card. Thank you so much for the time and effort you put into making it.

Beautiful, I got to see this card in person today. It might actually stay on display on my craft studio on the recipient desk. 😃
It's like being at a park during a balloon party
I too struggled with the shelves. They just wouldn't let the card fold right.
