High Thank You

 Have you ever gone up on a hot air balloon? I often thought it would be quite an adventure to experience. Yet, it seems the older I get, the more fearful I become of heights. So, I do not see it happening any time soon. Here are some hot air balloons flying over the neighborhood. What do you think?




Stamps:
   Lift Me Up
   Teeny Tiny Wishes
   Good Neighbors

Paper:
   Not Quite Navy A-2, Scraps
   Whisper White 5-1/4 x 4 (2)
   Ruby Red Scraps
   Barely Banana Scraps

Ink:
   Not Quite Navy
   Ruby Red
   Barely Banana
   Basic Gray

Technique:
   Die Cutting
   2-Step Stamping

Accessories:
   Up & Away Thinlits
   Basic Rhinestone Jewels
   Stamp-a-ma-jig
   Adhesive

First, I stamped my townhouses on the bottom of the card. I added the roofs. I used the stamp-a-ma-jig tool to get exact stamping on these. I did not want the roofs to fall. Since this is a wooden stamp set, the stamp-a-ma-jig was the best tool to use with the least amount of trouble.

I then stamped clouds randomly above. In retrospect, I would stamp fewer ones, or leave them out completely. After all, we want to see the balloons!

Next, I stamped and die cut my balloons. I adhered these to the card front, using liquid adhesive.

Lastly, I added rhinestones, stamped my sentiment, and adhered the other Whisper White panel to the inside of the card.

  2. Thank you, Lisa! I think I will leave the clouds out and just sponge or blend the background with some light blue tones. Happy Stamping!
