Hello!   Thanks for dropping in.

This is the birthday card I made for my grandson who recently turned 4.  Since Tate loves balloons, I wanted to make them my focal point so I replaced Roboto's balloons with Avery Elle's party balloons, as they were much larger.  

I used my DIY stamping tool that I learned to make from Hallmark Scrapbook & Crafts to stamp the balloons.   I ended up stamping and restamping each balloon several times so my DIY tool got the job done, but it also made me love the concept of  the Misti tool even more so I'll probably break down and buy me a Misti sooner than I planned.

Here are the challenges I'll be participating in:
The 7 Kids College Fund Challenge Blog, Challenge #139, Anything Goes!
Addicted to CAS, Challenge #77 - Dimension
Less is More, Week 251 Theme - Numbers!

Thanks for your visit.   Wishing you and yours a very Happy Thanksgiving!
