Balloon Birthday Card

I created a stencil for the balloons in this card, cutting them out of various colours. I sellotaped the string onto the back of the balloons and tied it round the front of each one. To place them on the card I used foam squares raised at different heights to create a more 3D effect. I used a piece of tracing paper to write on, so that the string can still be seen behind. attaching this with two coloured drawing pins. I sellotaped the ends of the string onto the back of the card, ensuring they were kept parallel and covered this with a tall insert.
