Hot Air Balloon
Hi Everyone,
Welcome to day 4 of The Spring Collection Blog Blitz. My card feature's two of the new dies and a new stencil.
New Memory Box Products used:
- Beautiful Balloon Die #98854
- Golf Club Landscape #98889
- Modern Cloud Cover Stencil #88558
Other Memory Box Products:
- Mesh Stencil #88517
- Dill, Crimson and Parchment Cardstock
- Happy Birthday Stamp
For this card I die cut the Golf Club Landscape twice using Dill Cardstock. I cut the flag off of each piece. On the Parchment Cardstock I used the Modern Cloud Cover Stencil and Tumbled Glass Distress Ink to create the background. Using Crimson Cardstock, die cut the Beautiful Balloon. Sand over the balloon to reveal the embossed areas. With White Ink stencil over the background using the mesh stencil. Assemble the card as shown.
I hope you enjoyed today's card.

Love the sanding on the balloon, what a great scene you created!

This scene is amazing. I really like how you have used the golf landscape. At first when I looked at the die in the catalogue I wasn't interested but now I have a different viewpoint. The balloon is great! I have a thing for hot air balloons, some day I want to go up in one.
Thank you for sharing this inspiring, creative card.

Looks like such a fun die!

This is a great card! It strikes me as having a masculine feel, which is always more difficult for me.

Keep the new dies and stencils coming! I love the cards everyone is making.

I liked what you did with the balloon. It looks like it is getting ready to land. So many things you could do with that die cut.
