It's time! You may now purchase the Bundle of Balloons Card Kit in the MFT Store!
I'd like to share one more project with you using this versatile kit.
If you're a follower of my blog, you know that I LOVE ink distressing and the technique
would naturally make an appearance on a project. So here it is.
I began by clear embossing balloons on white card stock, then ink distressed with
yellow, orange, and pink Distress inks. I spattered water over the surface and trimmed
the panel down to 4 x 5.25". The card looked a little "flat" so I die cut more balloons
from white card stock and lightly ink distressed the edges, then popped them over
the embossed balloons.
I inked the very bottom of the panel with green ink for a bit of interest, and added
some stars around the balloons. The sentiment was gold embossed on a strip of
white card stock and ink distressed with yellow ink and popped up on the panel.
The panel was then adhered to a white card base.
Balloon overkill? I guess I did get carried away. But in my opinion, you can never

Such a COOL TECHNIQUE! I love the colors too... so warm and inviting!
ReplyDeleteLove the ombre look of this card. :)
ReplyDeleteYou read my mind, Donna! I wanted to see your ink-distress version of the balloons. :-) Your ink-distressing and spattering are as gorgeous as ever. Adding the green at the bottom does add interest, and popping up the lightly ink-distressed balloons make the card look more fun! Hideko xx
