The stamping and colours on the front panel of this birthday card were inspired by the card pictured at the bottom of page 14 of the new annual catalogue.  I stamped the balloons in Bubble Bath and Lemon Lolly inks, and the strings in Berry Burst ink.  The balloon in the foreground is stamped in Lemon Lime Twist ink.  Don't you love these bright new colours!

Do you see the ribbon tab at the bottom of the card?  That must mean that you pull it, right?

When you pull on the tab at the bottom of the birthday card, the front flap pops open and reveals the inside of the card and a gift card voucher - so much fun!  This card design is called a Gift Card Slider, which I have adapted from a project by Susan Campfield.

I have loved playing with the Beautiful Balloons Bundle and all the layers of this fun fold card... you can't go wrong with balloons for birthdays, or any occasion really!
