LET'S PARTY-PAPER PIECING & PARTIAL DIE CUTTING


Hi there friends!  I have some more cards to share with you all today using the Let's Party Collection releasing June 17th!  I will have to say that my fellow Brand Ambassador Susan and I were on the same page when we created these cards.  Great minds!!!

These cards use the amazing Poppin' Patterned Paper Pack & the Yay Gifts stamp set.  I did some partial die cutting and some paper piecing.  Haven't done paper piecing in a long time, but this set and these papers were perfect together!


As you can see I spent some time fussy cutting the balloons from the patterned paper pack, but I enjoyed it.  I just stamped the balloon stamp onto each piece of patterned paper and then fussy cut them out to paper piece onto the white partial die cut panel.  I love having the top of the card the shape of the balloons.  It's such a fun effect.  I made sure to trim off the bottom of the card base to make sure it still fits in a regular size envelope.


I stamped a different Happy Birthday sentiment from the Happy Birthday Many Ways stamp set & the Yay Gifts stamp set on each card.  They all coordinated perfectly!

Here is another card I created by adding the balloon die cut over the top of the card fold.  I colored the balloons using the direct to paper swiping technique.


I added a strip of patterned paper on the bottom for some added interest.  Love the plaid piece in the pack.
