Today I got to use the fabulous new StampTV Kit called “Petals & Wings”---I LOVE, LOVE the StampTV Kits that Gina puts out! They are always jammed-packed full of fab images & sentiments that can be mixed & matched! Always a great value and you get some papers, brads, ribbons & more in the set…awesome blossom!! I chose to use this fab hot air balloon image for this card. I used more papers from MME’s Miss Caroline (Howdy) – cuz I love ‘em – but chose to pull more of the minty green tones out this time. I used my handy dandy Bow Easy for my bow, topped with a button & some extra pearls.
To mix it up a bit I decided to paper piece the clouds and basket of the air balloon—then I stickled the heck out of them for sparkle LOL! I want to go on a hot-air balloon ride this year
For the rest of the image I used Copics (G02,G00,G000/YR02,YR00,YR0000) and then I put a nice thick coat of Crystal Lacquer on the heart for shine.Ok now you need to hop to the designers below and leave some love on their posts for a chance to win a great Grab Bag of stamps!! And you will surely be inspired today!

ReplyDeleteSuzanne, love the soft green color on this card. Still no luck watching the copic 5 videos on my ipad.
