Colourful Party Balloons

Good Morning my lovely crafty friends.
I hope all is well with you and that you are having a good weekend.
I am here today to show you a very colourful card made with some gorgeous goodies from Dies to Die for.

 This time I have had lots of fun playing with some wonderful new ink pads. 
 I have used the MFT Party Balloons stamp set. The yellow and pink balloons I stamped using some Hero Art Shadow Inks. These inks are really great for solid images, the coverage is fabulous and the colours are gorgeous. For the purple balloon I used a MFT Hybrid Ink pad, again this stamped beautifully. 
The starry background was created with the same ink using a Memory Box Stencil.
The fabulous folded sentiment banner is a La-La Land die and the gorgeous Bubblegum coloured card was cut to size using a die from Die-Namics Blueprints 13.



The pink Doodlebug Sprinkles are a good colour match to the pink balloon but unfortunately they seem to clash a bit on my picture!

Items Used:



I would like to enter my card into the following fabulous challenges:
Simon Says Wednesday challenge - Stencil It
Creative Inspirations - Bright and Bold Colours
Seize the Birthday - Anything Birthday goes (optional extra Summertime)


Thank you so much for taking the time to stop and look at my blog today. Your continued support and encouragement really means so much to me and I love to read any comments you may wish to make.
I hope you enjoy the rest of the weekend.
Bye for now
hugs

What a simple but effective card, Sue! I have to say, I have been hankering after some MFT products for a while now, but just don't have the spare cash to spend on crafty stash at the moment and if I did, I would then have the dilemma as to what to buy!?! Love the pretty candy colours and stamped bakground! Enjoy your week! Hugs, Lisa x
