This is another card made with foiled background dies. The darker foiled balloons are made from foiling the waste. This time I used Lawn Fawn Party Balloons and Penny Black Uplifting Balloons and the same DFN Craft Thread in Turquoise.
I also decided to use a polka dot embossing folder for a background behind the balloons. The panel was sized using a stitched rectangle before the embossing. The embossed rectangle was matted with turquoise cardstock. The darker balloons were adhered directly to the embossed panel with liquid glue and the smaller balloon at the front was adhered using Simon Says Stamp Big Mama Foam Tape. The balloon ties were adhered at the back of the panel with Scotch Tape. For additional depth sticky back foam was added to the back of the panel before adhering it to a top folding cardbase.
The sentiment was hot foiled as well, using turquoise foil and then cutting into a strip using a Pink & Main Sentiment Strip. Simon Says Stamp foam tape was added to the back before adhering it over the balloon strings.
