ATCET: Balloon background

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.

Fill the balloon & 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 want but, make sure some of the background show.

Add a sturdy backing with your SB info & mail in a protective sleeve.
