Let's get started!

I have used two of our four new releases - Balloon Boy Brat and Balloon Girl Brat and both are using the delicious Ribbon Carousel ribbon!!

 

I stamped Balloon Boy Brat once on Copic Xpress cardstock and again on my patterned paper and pieced the patterned paper onto the balloon. Then, I coloured the whole image, patterned paper and all, with my copics adding some shading here and there.

I cut him out and popped him up onto my card background.....the lovely orange ribbon was tied at the side since I didn't want a huge bow on a masculine card.....my little thing.....

On my next card, I used the same layout, and just changed up the stamp, patterned paper and the ribbon. 

Of course, I added some extra bling on Balloon Brat Girl - because I LOVE bling!!

Now, as you can see - you should be hopping on to Els Brige's Blog - and I know there is loveliness over there!!
