Hey there. Today I'm sharing a card I originally created for my #imbringingbirthdaysback stamp-a-stack but it didn't make the cut:

I combined Number of Years stamps and framelit bundle with the Zoo Babies and Party Pants sets. Here's the reason this card didn't make the cut. I'm terrible at hand-drawing   balloon strings!

This was the better of TWO separate attempts to draw realistic-looking balloon strings.  After throwing two card fronts in the trash, I switched to Bermuda Bay Baker's Twine for the balloon strings. Success!

I added phrases from the Sale-a-bration Party Pants set, and punched a clear Metallics Glitter Washi Tape/Lost Lagoon balloon with the tiny balloon punch from the Party Punch Pack.

I used the color combo of Sahara Sand, Lost Lagoon, and Whisper White.

The Party Pants set includes a balloon string stamp, which is the only reason I was able to add them to the inside! lol!
