Ombre birthday balloons

Hello. Playing in a few challenges today. Had a chance to whip up this card in between loads of laundry today.


I used My Favorite Things dies to create this CAS ombre card. Distress inks used on Bristol paper to create the ombre effect. Cut them out using the balloons die. I did add some polka dots to the lilac balloon in back just to be different. I used Sunny Studio background basics and stamped in unicorn white ink from hero arts. I did heat emboss with clear embossing powder to add a bit of shine to it. Small clear sequins are from Pretty Pink Posh.

Thanks for stopping by!

Recycled some corrugated cardboard to add some texture and interest to the card. Added three pink satin ribbons to the left side for the same reason. Sentiment is from Avery Elle.
