Circle Twofer



Last time I tried to play along with Darnell's Twofer challenge I missed the deadline so this time I'm determined to get in there before it's too late!  
WPlus9's Doodle Buds set has a few different flower shapes in it including this fun circle.  On my first card I used it as it was intended as a flower.  I thought, however, that it would also make a fun balloon so I created some bright and happy birthday balloons for the second card.  I used some baker's twine for the string and added a fun, curly happy birthday sentiment.

Nicely done on the twofer! Sweet flower on the tag (and coloured card base!). Great idea to use them as balloons!

What a fun stamp you've used for your two crisp and CASlicious designs, Jen! I absolutely love it both as a flower on your great tag design and as a balloon on your birthday design with a perfect loopy sediment! (And is it just me or would it also make a delightful eyeball, maybe on a puffer fish?) Very fun, creative, and colorful cards! Thank you so much for playing in Twofer Card Challenge #28! Keep well! Hugs, Darnell

I have this set, and never once thought to use it for this challenge! Oh you are soooo clever!! Two fabulous cards, Jen! LOVE that green base on your 'hello' card; it just makes your tag and all the bits just pop. Love this card! And balloons....a simply amazing idea! Love those bright colors you've chosen, too. Such a very happy birthday card. Love it! Thanks so much for joining us at The Twofer Challenge. Sending hugs, Bev
