ATCET: Filled balloon stamping

Take a un-inflated balloon & fill it with items. Using an ink pad, your filled balloon will be used like a rubber stamp on your ATC. This will become the background.

Here are some suggestions of items to fill your balloon with but use your imagination & experiment. Dried split peas, dry pasta, chick peas, un-popped popcorn, rice, beads, small buttons.

Fill the balloon with your items & squeeze out the air. Then tie a knot in the neck of the balloon. I stamped on a full sheet of cardstock so that I can have several ATC's & even make a card from it.

Finish the ATC any way you wish making sure some of the background shows. Add a sturdy backing with your Swap bot info. Mail in a protective sleeve.

I am adding a little extra time to this because lots of people will have graduations & receptions during this time.
