Birthday with Balloons - CTO #31

Hello Everyone!!  It's time once again for another new challenge at Celebrate the Occasion.  This week our challenge is to create a birthday project with a balloon on it.  Those two go so well together, so easy peasy, right?
  I'm really excited about my project and the reason why is.... I got to use my IMAGINE,  imagine that!!  I purchased my machine in early July.  I swore I'd never get one of these, but was convinced, so I started bidding on Ebay and we ALL  know how that goes...  I won!!!  So to make a long story short, I had to send the machine back 3 times. I received the 4th and it  WORKS!!
This is the first project I've made with it.
 Recipe for this card:  -
  Best Friends Imagine cart- background paper, girl & balloons
  Martha Stewart Drippy Goo Border Punch  -  grass
  Fiskars Tag Squeeze punch-  tag
  Stampin Up  "Create a Cucake" stamp set  -   sentiment
  Stampin Up Dimensionals
  Stampin Up Black ink

Come join us in the challenge!  First, go check  out the rest of the Designers projects, you'll be inspired!
Happy Creating!!!

    Darling card! It's great the Imagine is finally working and you can have fun with it! I love how you turned the drippy goo punch upside down to create the grass - very creative!

    I wanted to pop in and say hi. Debby got in touch with me to let me know you are the next stop after me on the hop, so, I have it all fixed up in my post and wanted to be sure the link worked. Hope to send lots of Fiskateers your way tomorrow!

    By the way, you did a great job for the birthday and balloon challenge! Hope you are having fun with your Imagine! I love my Expression, I could only dream of having an Imagine!
