Hey there! I used an old swap as the fold inspiration for my card today with the Picture Perfect Party Designer Series Paper and Party Pandas stamps!

I started with a standard 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" Bermuda Bay card base, cutting off 1" to make the dimensions 5 1/2" x 7". I then scored it at 1 3/4" from both edges of the 7" length for the front flaps. I layered Berry Burst 1 1/2" x 5 1/4" strips with 1 1/4" x 5" Picture Perfect Party Designer Series Paper strips to create adorn the front flaps.

I cut a Whisper White Stitched Shapes circle, then layered Bermuda Bay circle cut with a Layering Circles Framelit Die. I used the Balloon Bouquet punch to make the Berry Burst, Picture Perfect Party, and the Myths & Magic Glimmer Paper balloons. I added pieces of Silver Baker's Twine to the back of each balloon with glue dots. I adhered the strings together on the card front with a glue dot, then added a pre-tied bow with a glue dot too!

Inside I stamped a Party Panda and the "Happy Birthday" from the same set.

Party Pandas is a Level One Sale-a-bration freebie. Choose this set when you order at least $50!

On the envelope I covered the stamped balloon with a paper-pieced one of Picture Perfect Party Designer Paper.

It was easy to do! I simply stamped the balloon on the designer paper, cut it out with Paper Snips, and added to the stamped envelope with a bit of liquid glue.

I stamped the same panda on the envelope flap for continuity and to dress up my envelope a bit more!

You'll find the supply list for this card at the bottom of this post!
