Balloon Birthday card

When this posts, I will be in Melbourne supporting my daughter's volleyball team - Burnside High School -  Go girls!!  While they are away one of the team will be celebrating her birthday, so here's I made this for the team to write in and if you have this set it may give you some inspiration for using it:

This card size is 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches.  The strips of colour behind the hot air balloon are easy as there is a die to cut it for you - go figure!  The greeting is from Tin of Cards and was stamped onto Whisper White then cut using the Stitched Shapes Framelits, (hopefully it won't be too long before these are back in the shop), the Rich Razzleberry circle was cut from the same dies. The colour I chose to contrast was Emerald Envy. The large numbers were cut from Silver glimmer paper, 'cos a girl has to have some bling.  You can't see the detail of the background in the top picture, but I used the Fluttering TIEF and will give you a different light and angle to make it easier. Thanks for stopping by.
