Balloon Celebration - DSC#166

Hi Stampers,

Take a look at this weeks DOstamper Thursday DSC#166 Sketch Pad Challenge! I just love those Balloons!  Designing this card gave me a chance to try out my Balloons Celebration Bundle .  I have been dying to use that balloon punch, but truth be told, I have been so extremely sick all of this past week, it was hard to even get this card made and the blog post done. So, with that being said, this post might be a little shorter than the usual but it is a miracle I got it done at all.

This week's challenge was a super fun sketch. "Right away I saw Balloons in my head, so...  out came my Balloons Celebration Bundle.

The Little Stamped Stars from the stamp set, the Bermuda Bay Bakers Twine, and the Rhinestone Jewels pulled this card all together for me.

Basic Instructions:

• Using the Balloons Celebration Bundle, stamp on the Watermelon Wonder, Crushed Curry, and Bermuda Bay papers using the Tuxedo Memento Black Ink and punch out with the matching balloon punch from the Balloons Celebration Bundle,
• Cut Whisper White CS cardbase 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and score at 4-1/4".
• Cut Cherry on Top DSP @ 2" x 5-1/2"
• The Watermelon Wonder thin strip was cut @ 1/2" x 5-1/2".
• Stamp sentiment on the Whisper White CS using the Sky is the Sky Limit Stamp Set.
• Punch the Whisper White CS with the Angle Punch 2" x 3", and the circle with the #3
•  from the Circle Framelits Collection.  
• The Bermuda CS circle was done with the 1-3/4" Circle Punch.
• Cut a small piece Bermuda Bay Bakers Twine for top of the tag.
• Add 2 Rhinestone Jewels to sentiment.
• Envelope Liner was made with the Envelope Punch Board and the Cherry on Top DSP.
