Week 207 ~ Up, Up and Away
My card today is for the City Crafter Challenge Week 207 - Up, Up and Away with this lovely colourful picture as inspiration. Had to scrounge deep in my pre-stamped drawer for these to hot air balloons that I coloured and close trimmed. I've teamed it with the sketch layout at Just Add Ink Week 211. To create the background I sponged distress inks through a lattice die cut and over stamped with script and stamped a sentiment. Then stamped another sentiment on the banner die cut and edged it with a fine zigzag edge.
I'm really happy with the card as I didn't want to have to make a "brightly coloured" one. Thanks for taking a peek Robyn

ReplyDeleteRobyn this is a lovely card and it would have been perfect for my sister's 50th birthday earlier this year as she went ballooning. Your balloons look like they are about to lift of your card and go exploring. Thanks for joining in with our challenge this week at Just Add Ink.
ReplyDeleteWow love how you have created that background!
