Fix-It Friday-Balloon Adventure

  Wouldn't you love to get a little something in a cute bag like this?  What about a card that looks a lot like this bag?

 Can you see what I changed to turn the bag into a card?

1. I added two backgrounds on the back of the Party Animal designer paper.  The main card is cut from Crushed Curry which coordinates with the designer paper.  The inside paper is actually the reverse side of the designer paper.

2. Instead of adding ribbon on the side, I made a knot of the Emerald Envy ribbon on the top layer of the card.

3. I attached one of the Party Animal embellishments to the know.

The looks are the same, but the projects can be used for totally different occasions.

It has been fun this week exploring the items in the Party Animal Suite.
Come back next week to see what I do with the Dragonfly Dreams Bundle. 
 

Template Thursday-Balloon Adventure

I used the following items to make the cards for my template.

1. Party Animal designer paper

2. Balloon Adventure stamp set

3. Coordinating card stock

The small one inch squares make a great background for this card.  Remind me of a quilt.

On this card I made rectangles from the designer paper and contrasting card stock.

For this final card I made 3 strips that went the width of the card.

Which card is your favorite?  These cards helped me realize how cute and versatile this designer paper can be.

Come back tomorrow to see how I took a gift bag and changed it into a standard sized card.
