Happy Wednesday everyone! I was cleaning out my camera last night and came across some assembly instructions for the
Party Time! page kit. When I was putting together the sample kit I realized that the balloons were a little tricky and had to be assembled in the correct order, otherwise they're not going to look quite right. So I grabbed my phone and shot some assembly pics.
Yes, they're camera phone shots...yes, that explains the funky lighting...hey, the glue was drying on the first one when I realized what a PITA this was going to be without step-by-step instructions. Just pretend they're not fuzzy and funky-colors! LOL
The balloons are part of the title for the page, and the phrase assembly is completely self-explanatory.
Once you've got your letters glued down, it's time to make some balloons!

After putting together the balloon layers, glue the green balloon down first |

Wondering how to glue them down? I used a glue pen, perfect for making little dots of glue. |

See? I use a "dot dot dot" technique to get around the narrow spaces, then scribble over the rest. |

Wondering what the shimmery partial circle was for? The pink balloon!That way the other balloon colors don't show through. :) |

Pink balloon goes down last, and you're done! |

Now it's party time! |
There we go! Simple steps, but if you don't do them in order, the balloons don't come out quite right. I hope this helps everyone's assembly and let me know if you have any questions!
Happy Crafting!
