Morning all. I am shattered!! Was up to the wee hours of the morning crafting with a few gals. Yes I stayed up after you left!! I had to finish that card didn't I!?
I used the colours (ish) from this week's Colour Q. I didn't have the exact colours so I went with the closest match. I teamed it with the FTL clean and simple sketch.
The background stamp is Unity from a kit of the month. I wasn't keen on the heart 'clouds' in the middle for this particular card, so I covered them with some hot air balloons from a set from Practicing Creativity. I added dimensional magic to the balloons and raised them up on dimensionals. I painted the clouds with white dimensional paint. At first I had the sentiment stamped directly onto the blue, but we all decided it just looked lost, needed a bit extra colour to pop out, so I added the red strip. I have to say I really struggled with these colours!
Here is a close up of the balloons.
My next post will be a card for my Dad, so Dad if you are looking then look away now!!!
I LOVE the hot air balloons!!! I feel a shopping "spree" heading my way!!! Awesome card!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute card! I love that you used dimensional paint on the clouds and dimensional magic? That's a new one for me . . . I presume it is like crystal lacquer. Really cute card!!!!
