Hi cardmakers and friends! I’m finally getting our oldest grandson’s birthday card posted! There is a reason for the colors and the personalized license plate! He just turned 19, so there’s 19 balloons, the orange and green balloons represent the two robotics teams he’s been on and the black truck because he has a black car! lol
I had so much fun playing with this Spellbinders Truckin’ Through the Seasons Die set. So glad I bought it! I can’t wait to use it for Christmas especially but this was really fun! I die cut 19 balloons and inked the edges with coordinating ink and the ink blending tool.
The light reflection pieces on the balloons are die cut vellum. The die cut for that comes with the Balloon die set linked below.
I did make the license plate myself. I printed the name out on the computer and it is his actual license plate.
Quite a bit of dimension but it still fits in an A2 envelope. I would use an A6 envelope if I was putting it in the mail.
The Birthday Pennant die is discontinued but the Birthday Letters are still available…link below.
The sky is definitely the limit with this set! So many great things ahead for Ethan. Exciting but so hard to believe 19 years have gone by since he was born! So proud of him!
Thanks for stopping by!
The products I used to make this card…thank you!
