New Post at Inkspirational!


Hi friends!
I'm here with my DT card for our new CAS challenge at Inkspirational! There's an option to be inspired by balloons in your design. 


I decided to make a monochromatic CAS card with Hero Arts Looking Glass Birthday Party and Looking Glass Square Frame dies and sentiment by Stampendous. 

To add interest to my monochrome design I made my own glitter card stock by heat embossing sparkly clear embossing powder on black card stock... Apparently the powder had many greenish and blueish particles because you can hardly see the black base anymore! Love how it turned out though although the outcome wasn't "clear glitter" lol!

Please head on over to our challenge blog for all the challenge details and lots of more DT inspiration.

All the layers in my die cut window were cut from small pieces of leftover paper

  1. Nonni, your monochromatic Looking Glass Birthday Party packs a whole lot of celebration into that little square! Balloons, banners, a cake...all in a compact, eye-catching, fabulous CAS style! The glittery balloons are a delightful special touch. Love this! I need to check out these HA products some time; they look super cool!
