1

Die-cut the ‘happy’ and ‘birthday’ frames from a 13cm-square of red cardstock.

2

Position the red panel over the open front of the card without adhering, and find the ‘groove’ in the aperture. Tape down and die-cut again.

3

With the red panel to one side, adhere four 14cm-long coloured strips of cardstock round the edge to create a border.

4

Die-cut three balloons into the panel before adding adhesive to the back and affixing to the card front.

5

Affix in position so that the red die-cut is exactly over the card-front die-cut, creating a complete aperture.

6

Infill the balloons with coloured die-cuts, add a yellow 14cm-square insert inside the card and adhere blue ‘happy’ and ‘birthday’ die-cuts in position through the aperture. Add clusters of Nuvo drops to finish.
