I had so much fun with this kit.  There is fabulous designer paper to help you pick colors.  My favorite by far is the 3 NEW Balloon dies, LOVE THEM.  SO I used them on two cards to share with you today.

How to create the Life is a Party Cards:

Pick pattern paper from the kit for your card fronts.

Choose colors in the pattern paper to die cut your balloons with the included dies.

Life is a Party Card #1

For this card I used Doll Pink, Audrey blue and Royal Purple card stock to die cut the balloons.

Before gluing them down, stamp the strings in black on the card front along with the sentiment.

Finally, attach the balloons and embellish with End of the Rainbow Sequins.

Card #2

Before attaching the patterned paper to the card front, stamp the Party sentiment in black.

Next, make a Edge to Edge shaker front for it with the packaging from the stamp set.  (the cello bag).

Use red line tape to secure the edges at the back leaving the top open to shake in some End of the Rainbow Sequins.

Secure the top and attach the shaker to the top folding A2 White card base.

Die cut two balloons from Doll Pink card stock and the small balloon from white cardstock.

Using a blending brush, add Salt Water Taffy Distress Oxide to the large balloon.  Use Doll Pink Ink for the medium balloon and Audrey Blue for the small balloon.

Finally, glue black thread tot he back of the balloons before attaching them to the card front.
