Certainly into heavy metal on this card




This card is certainly heavy on the metal embellishments. I went through my stash and managed to find some orange paper that has gold leaft through it. The wooden celebrate word was coloured in with my silver gold leaf pen, The stems of the balloons is gold embroidery thread and the balloons have been cut from patterned paper with a gold heart design. I was at first worried the word celebrate was too big for the card but I am happy with the way it stands out being put over both edges. The balloons were fussy cut following a balloon template and the gold thread was stitched onto the card.

I love the colors you chose, and I definitely think the weird hanging off the card MAKES it! Thumbs up!
