This card is for a first of many. What a pretty little thing. I started with an ABC embossing folder and then cut the wavy edge with a new die I got for the holiday.
I used the same die to cut the plaid for the interior edge of the card.
I cut the balloons with a Simon Says balloon die. The number ONE was cut with my cricut and then second cut to give it that darker pink highlight. I glued them together and topped it with glossy accents to make it look plastic.
I attached the balloons with dimensional squares and tied the bakers twin to the one which was also attached with dimensional squares.
So cute for a first.
Here are a couple of pics from a flat angle and of the inside.

Ha ha! You are so right Dawn.....things do begin or start with 1! Loving the plaid design with all the white space and I bet the glossy accents look amazing up close. What a super card and a really original take on our theme. Thanks so much for sharing this with us at Less is More xx
What a super card design! I love the inside peeking out, and the fun balloons. Great take on our "new beginnings" theme at Less is More. Thanks so much for playing along with us :)
I love the gloss on your number 1 - it looks fabulous! The way that you have used the plaid paper is really clever too. Thank you for joining us at Less is More :)
Great design, love it. Thanks for joining us at CHNS patterned Paper Challenge this month.
Like the way you've made your edge a wavy cutaway, it gives a real sense of movement.
Thanks for sharing at HLS. :)
