Do you remember the wedding bell decorations "in the old days"?
I know the hall for my wedding reception had the
bells that came flat and you opened them up
with all the little honeycombs inside to
create a nice full bell.
The Occasions Catalog has a new item called
Honeycomb Embellishments.
They are like those wedding bells but they
are little circles.
Check out today's card — I added that
embellishment for the balloon.
Now I have a 3-D balloon on my card.
My card base is Mint Macaron cardstock with a layer
of Melon Mambo and Basic Black.
I used the It's My Party designer paper and
added three strips to the Basic Black layer.
Tip Top Taupe cardstock was cut 1 7/8" x 4 1/4"
and punched at the top with the
Ornate Tag Topper Punch.
I stamped the balloon from a Sale-a-Bration
stamp set Honeycomb Happiness with
Memento ink. I colored the bow with the
Melon Mambo marker. This tag
was attached to a larger Basic Black tag.
I used the Melon Mambo twine from the
Baker's Twine Combo Pack which is
new in the Occasions Catalog.
Then I added the Mint Macaron
Honeycomb Embellishment.
They have adhesive on them so they
stick down very nice.
You have to give these cuties a try.
