Birthday Hugs Ballon

Happy Tuesday Everyone!
 
Did you all have a great Holiday weekend?  We had a weekend filled with my son's football Championship game (which they won), an all day fishing trip off the coast of San Diego, and a BBQ to celebrate a friend's birthday.
 
I am exhausted, be glad we had an extra day of family time, thanks to the brave men and woman of our armed forces.  Thank You!
 
Today is my day to share over at Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbons, and I am sharing a Birthday card I made using the Patriotic Balloon file.
 

 
I love how versatile these files are!

I used the Patiotic Balloon cutting file, and by leaving off the top layer with the star cut-outs, and using patterned papers, I made it into a Birthday Balloon.

I used the offset feature and added a 1/4 inch border around the balloon, and then flipped it, and welded it to make it into a shape card.

The papers are from the DCWV "The Sky's the Limit" stack, and the sentiment is from My Creative Time's "Wow So Many Candles" stamp set.

Have a great week, and thanks for stopping by!
