This months MFT Card Kit is adorable as always! This month it is a fantastically versatile set of alphabet balloons called Bundle of Balloons. Instead of using the actual die for today's card, I am starting out with what the die cuts left behind. An amazing stencil!
To create the card, I used the negative after all the balloons were popped out. Basically....don't cut the dies apart and you'll have a great cardstock stencil to use. I tapped down the stencil and did a little oxide ink blending to create this rainbow card. I added in "oh happy day" from the Handwritten Happiness along with some black jewels to finis the card front off. I added the card front to a card base after trimming just a tiny bit from each of the sides. That way it pops from the base.
