Hello and welcome back! The new My Favorite Things card kit called Bundle of Balloons is officially available now in the MFT online store. In this month's kit you'll receive the Alphabet Balloon dies, the Number dies and a rainbow assortment of card stock that includes 20 sheets!
For my card tonight I decided to create a bouquet of balloons growing from a planter pot. I thought it would be cute to have all of the balloon strings coming from the pot to create a colourful bunch of floating balloons.
I diecut a bunch of the plain balloons from various colors of card stock in the kit and then I mixed in some black and white polka dot ones as well. I added the balloon strings with a black pen before adhering everything down and a few of the balloons are raised with foam adhesive.
I coloured the pot with grey Copic markers and I added the stamped Happy Birthday strip over the balloon strings. I also personalized the card by layering some pink number balloons for a tone-on-tone effect.
Thanks so much for stopping by tonight! I can't wait to see what everyone creates with the new kit!

What a nice mix of solid and patterned balloons: you chose a great color palette. And then your coloring on the pot holding them is gorgeous as well. Everything sets each other off beautifully. Thanks for sharing!
