ICAD 2017 #16

I had some dies that I had not used yet.  I decided to bring them out and make a little scene with them.  I love how cut this card came together.

I used dies from two sets by Jillibean Soup: Small Circle Set and Cloud Set.  I used papers from the Hootenanny 6x6 paper pack from Colorbox.  I wanted to use some patterned papers instead of just solid card stock in order to add more interest to the scene.  I cut multiple of the two balloon pieces and then glued them together so that the balloon would be popped up off the card some.

Once I had glued all of the pieces together onto the card, I added clear Wink of Stella to the balloon
circle.  It gives the balloon some more movement, plus who doesn't love lots of glitter and shine.  I also glued the balloon at an angle to give movement to the overall design.

I think the pink birds are lovely and pull the scene together.  The nice part about using a one paper pad for your whole scene is that all of the colors work well together.  You don't have to worry about them not matching.  Even the patterns themselves coordinate together.
