Card with big balloons for MFT

Hi there! Today we’re kicking off the countdown to the Birthday themed MFT July Release with Day 5. I’ve made a Birthday card with big balloons and the camouflage inlay technique, that I hope you’ll like.

To create the colorful background, I used the Big Balloon Stencil and the following Premium Dye Inks; Wild Cherry, Poppy Premium, Coral Crush, Peach Bellini, Pineapple, Lemon Drop, Gumdrop Green, Sour Apple, Blu Raspberry, Berrylicious, Grape Jelly and Wild Wisteria.

Once it was done, I diecut the panel with the largest die from the A2 Stitched Rectangle STAX Set 1 Die-namics and the Big Birthday Wishes Die-namics. I also die cut some white fun foam with the latter, so that I could do the inlay technique.

I adhered the die cut panel to a same sized panel with a bunch of adhesive (and then to the cardbase) and inserted the foam letters one by one. Next I glued the card stock letters in their places.

As a last touch, I added some matching sequins and that’s it. Thank you so much for stopping by! I now invite you to head on (back) to the MFT Blog to be linked to the fabulous projects of my teammates. The MFT July Release Countdown will be available on Tuesday July 7 at 10:00 a.m. EDT.
