To start my card, I cut a piece of heavyweight cardstock 10" x 6 1/2", scoring it at 5". I also cut two pieces of purple cardstock, 4 3/4" x 6 1/4" and 3" x 4 1/4"; as well as two pieces of patterned paper, one 4 1/2" x 6" and the other 2 7/8" x 4 1/8".
I then cut the images in various colors from the two dies . . .
. . . and sponged some distress ink on them to give them a bit of dimension. I added a highlight on each balloon with a white gel pen.
Then I constructed my card base . . .
Easy peasy!
