Big Balloon Ideas...

Today is the last group post for the Papertrey Ink release.  Have you been loving all the new goodies?  So many fun new things this month!  Today we get to share some of the new balloon dies that are available this month.  I have 2 cards to share using the solid balloon die from the new Shaker Shapes Balloon.

I cut this first balloon out of Vellum and then added in the sentiment in Enchanted Evening ink and card stock.  The Hooray is a die from the shaker set, as well.  Hip, Hip...comes from the Hooray stamp set.  I attached the balloon to a piece of the new paper from the Hooray Paper Collection.

Yesterday's party ensemble had me pretty inspired, so I thought I would make an extra card for today's post using that same color combo of Gold and Black.

I stamped a couple Background Basics: Super Stripes on the top of the card base.  Then I used Good Times to stamp some polkas in Gold on the bottom of the balloon die cut.  I added in the black sentiment from the Good Times dies and then a Gold Luxe cardstock, balloon string to finish off the card.

I also added in the Tucked In: Birthday stamp, on the inside of this card...

I hope you have enjoyed the Group Posts for this week.  I have a few more cards to share tomorrow on release day.  Do you have a list started? What is your favorite new item this month?

Thanks so much for stopping in today!  Have a ready day!
