balloon 1

The next few cards are all made using the Hooray for You stampset, which is so easy for total beginners while still giving loads of different looks.

I stamped the balloon image on Whisper White using Black Memento ink, then coloured in using the Watercolour Pencils.  I mounted the layer on a Bermuda Bay cardbase, and finished with a bow made form Silver Metallic-edged ribbon.  All done!  You could easy make a whole pile of these in one sitting, and then you’ve got birthday cards to hand whenever you need one.
