It's A Celebration!

 Welcome back crafty friends...HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Here we are in the year 2022...
 It's time for the Double D's first challenge in January and we are celebrating the blog's 6th birthday.  The theme is "Party Balloons".  Yes, just party balloons, please.  No hot air balloons for this project.
 
We will select 1 Top Creative Winner, 3 Creative Winners and 3 random winners for prizes.

Birthday Balloon Stamp & Die Set
 

Birthday Cling Rubber Stamp
 

 $20 Gift Certificate for the Dies R Us Store

 
Here's a mood board for inspiration...


I took inspiration from the photos on the top and bottom right...

Celebrate

I used a piece of fun watercolor paper and a favorite die cut as the background for the balloons.  The star  covered balloons on the mood board reminded me of a scrap of multi color, foil paper I had, so I used it to cut out six of them in various sizes.  I attached fine gold thread as the balloon strings, tied them together and gave them dimension with foam dots.  The sentiment is cut 3 times for added dimension also.
 
Visit the Double D Challenge Blog's current challenge, "Party Balloons" and you could be one of our winners.  Link up your project by January 16th to play along.
 
Thanks for stopping by today.
Hope to see you back again soon.
