This week for Papertrey Ink Stephanie has a great video on window chipboard sentiments. I think this technique gives your card a little something than the usual. For my sentiment I used the stamps & die from Wonderful Words: Birthday. For my top layer I used gold mylar tape on some white card stock and then die cut it out just for a little pop! The balloons are from the PTI stamp set Scene It: Celebration. I used a tip I saw on Betsy's blog applying the ink to the balloons using a sponge dauber. It gives the balloons a somewhat transparent look.
Thanks for stopping by...
