Today's card was made with the new Greatest Handyman Set and the Circle Balloon Dies. I thought it would be fun to make a large balloon shaped card with the largest balloon die. I stamped the tool stamps to create a pattern on the kraft paper. The gift card was placed in the Tag Gift Pocket Die that I stamped it with the Stripey Background II Stamp and a sentiment from the Greatest Handyman Set. I attached it to the front of the card and then tied on a small pieces of twine for fun.
