Hi, happy mid-week hello! It's on to the next challenge for me and this is a fun one!
The Paper Players ask for a clean and simple birthday card using balloons. I had a birthday sentiment prepared that's been hanging around on the corners of my desk all ready to go for a few weeks.
Happily, I had a new-to-me set of Balloon dies in my container of new and unused stuff. I used a retired background stamp to create some pale pink dots randomly on white card stock. This card measures 3.5 x 6". Adding just a bit of shading to the die cuts and white gel pen highlights, I used foam dimensionals for extra depth.
I have two grands that love pink, when I know which one I'm giving it to, I may add the number on a ballon to represent their new age.
I will add this card to the challenges at:

What a happy card for a birthday, Cindy! Your pink-loving grand will treasure it! I love the bold lime green with the pink and the dotty background. Thank you for inspiring everyone to use their NBUS! Hugs, Darnell
Always a favorite card size, it's perfect for letting your balloons float up and away in all their colorful cuteness! I like how the sentiment shadow and one balloon match. It will be extra special for one of the grands when you add their new age number to one of the balloons. Very fun, Cindy!
There's a lot of festivity in that mini-slimline card, Cindy! The balloons are fabulous, as is the fun sentiment font and I love the pink dots in the background too. Thank you so much for playing along with my CAS challenge this week at the Paper Players!
Well, those balloons worked perfectly for our challenge--how fun are they?! Great colors and background as well, anyone would love to receive this! Thanks for playing with us at the Players this week!
OH my! Cindy, this is just so much fun, with the bright balloon bouncing off the page, that I feel happy just looking at it! Thanks for sharing with us at The Paper Players.
Such a bright and cheerful way to say happy birthday! Cute card, Cindy!
