Good morning Uniko followers, it's time for another introducing post. Today we are showcasing the new Balloon Frames stamp set. Here's my take.
I made a shadow box card after seeing one in a Jennifer McGuire's You Tube video, which reminded me of the framed balloons.
After making the basic card, I added the coloured panel which I had cut away in the middle to create my aperture. Another row of balloons were added, fussy cut from a partially stamped frame and mounted on white card, as I wanted it taller than the original to show through the opening. I drew the strings in freehand, perhaps I should have stamped the separate confetti stamp I used for the background over the white card though, as after adding the background it perhaps looks a bit odd. Too late to change it now!!
In front of the box aperture I stamped the Happy Birthday and coloured with matching Copics. The front was decorated with a panel stamped with the parcel stamp from the set and an outline Happy Birthday.
A couple of thin strips of blue card just add a bit extra interest.
Fantastic cards Jules. The first is so clever and well done. X
