Silly Balloons!

Hello!  Happy Monday!  If you aren't happy yet, I dare you to look at my card and not at least crack a smirk... you know you wanna...


See?!  That's better, isn't it?  To create this card I started by apply gesso and gellatos to watercolor paper.  I then went over it with a brush and generational stamped a confetti background.  Next I added some fun arrow washi, and layered it with a few more strips of patterned paper.  The balloons from The Alley Way Stamp Set Cake Day were stamped onto gesso and gellato treated paper, colored and fussy cut.  I adhered them with foam adhesive and some twine.  Next came the stamped sentiment which is also raised with foam adhesive and finally the flair that says "Let's Party".  I adhered all of this at an angle on my card front and bam!  Happiness is leaking out of this card everywhere!

I'm am linking this little guy up to A Girl Who Crafts: Anything Goes Challenge
