Congratulations! You won this Unity Stamp Co KOM: Love in an INSTANT


Please email me at shilomiles@hotmail.com your mailing address so I ship this out to you.

OK, so back on track:
Today's die cut challenge was "BALLOONS".

Since Valentine's Day is coming up, I have been in a bit of a "love" mode (ok...and I might just be a little "twitter-patted" too - hehe). So I took the idea of balloons which normally says birthday or celebration to me and made a cute little Valentine's card for you all - I think this one would be perfect to give to a grandchild or son or daughter.....




 I used glossy accents on my balloon to make it look a bit more realistic...
Supplies Used: Cricut Cartridge - Birthday Bash; Bazzill Cardstock; October Afternoon Boarding Pass - Tokyo; October Afternoon Farmhouse - Attic Trunk; K&CO - Ka-Zoo Multi Hearts; Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Frayed Burlap & Worn Lipstick; Divine Twine - Licorice; Ranger Glossy Accents; Unity Stamp Co - Blossom Stackers (Be Mine sentiment); Jenni Bowlin Ink - Fountain Pen; Copic - E23; Stampin Up/EK Succes Three Hearts Punch & Scallop Edge Punch; Buttons, Google-ly Eyes, & B&W Polkadot Paper (a random, unidentified scrap - sorry) - Misc

Thanks so much for taking a peek at my card....
I am excited to get to know all of you better and I can only hope to send some creative inspiration your way!

Have a very happy Friday!
