Case This Card #CTC018 ~ Another Year Full of Adventures

Hi guys, it's been a while!

I have been snowed under by the holiday season and moving house! Who seriously moves house the week of Christmas? I can't say I will ever do it again ;) 

I am glad to be back and settled into my new place however and getting back into crafting. 

When I saw this Case the Card challenge by my gorgeous friend Jessie I just had to do it using this gorgeous new Balloon Adventures set. I love it! It's so fun and the matching Designer Series paper is fabulous and great with such a bright colour palette!

I have chosen to use a couple of the designer series paper and distressed the edges with a blade of my Stampin' Up snips. I also really love the bold mix of fonts in the sentiment. I have watercoloured the 'another year' section of the sentiment with the Tangerine Tango ink. 

I stamped the balloons in Tangerine Tango and Pacific Point and used the gorgeous matching thinlets to create the gorgeous bows and I finished it with some gorgeous linen thread. 

My favourite bit of the card however is the inside of the card. This amazing thinlet creates an amazing pop up. I think it is so fun and who doesn't love interactive cards?

I can see myself using this a lot more.
