Vellum over neon

Hello sweet bloggers,

My younger one made the background here with Mala paints directly on to a piece of cardstock without using a pencil. All was well until I thought I should go over the flourishes again and it got all messy. To save the card, I stuck a vellum sheet over it. Another layer was stuck under the paper with flourishes and it was painted fluorescent pink paint on its edges. I seem to like this card at certain times and not at others. I stuck a strip of cardstock to hold the vellum in place and another thin strip with Happy Birthday stamped on it. A few dots in fluorescent pink completed it. With the vellum, you will not need sunglasses to view this card. Lol.

Happy, fun, celebrate

Hi bloggers,

Here is another happy card to show you today. I stencilled the sentiments with a distress ink and found it looked a tad bland inspite of the sunny colour. After much deliberation, I die cut balloons out of recycled paper (juice cups, Body shop packaging and cake boxes) and hand drew the strings before sticking them. The ribbon is hand tied as well.  My girls really like this card and so did I finally.
