Good morning! It's Friday, and time for Unity Friends with Flair over at Unity Stamp Company! I thought I would share a card I made for the sketch for the last Papercrafts Magazine publication call - obviously it didn't make the cut, so I can share it here!
I used a Unity Stamp Itty Bitty for the hot air balloon, and the sentiment is from Papertrey Ink. I used a bit of Copics on the balloon, after heat embossing it with black powder.
The clouds are cut with my Cricut using the cartridge Pooh and Friends. I also textured them with the Papertrey Ink Linen impression plate.
All the paper is from Basic Grey's Picadilly 6x6 paper pad. The bottom starburst is a Market Street background stamp that I embossed with clear powder on the green paper. Finished off with some Jute button twine from Papertrey Ink.
Thanks for stopping by! Now make sure and head over to Unity Stamps to join in the fun!
WOW!! Now this is amazing. Love the embossed green and how it makes the balloon look as it floating into the sky.
ReplyDeleteIf it were a little bit warmer here, I would love to be floating in that balloon! Sweet creation!

ReplyDeleteSo colorful and bright.... Love the perspective the embossing brings!
