I used Papertrey Ink's cloud die cuts (distressed with TH inks) and their balloon stamp (colored with Copics). I just LOVE the clouds and balloons from Papertrey. And I used a sentiment from Hero Arts. I put it on 2 lines instead of 1. I didn't cut the clear stamp though, I just inked each part. I dont' know why, but I still haven't been able to bring myself to cut any of my clear stamps. :) I also used an EK Success border punch and then used TH distress ink to give the grassy "hills" some dimension.
Hope you have a great weeked. Yippee, it's Friday!! Thanks for dropping by!
supplies: Papertrey Ink stamp and Die (clouds), Hero Arts stamp (sentiment), EK Success border punch, TH Distress Inks, JoAnn Craft Essential notecard
This is just the sweetest thing! I know what you mean about the clouds die cuts..have been meaning to purchase it for a while now, they make the cutest shape! Love the colorful balloon...Megan will love this!
ReplyDeleteLOVE this, Kathy! All the details really show through in this card and how much you care about your niece! She will love THIS! And oh...you are not alone about cutting clear stamps,I just don't have the heart to cut them, either. I managed to use part of it when needed ;) Whatever works, right!?
ReplyDeleteSo adorable, Kathy! LOL, I did the same thing as far as sentiment. I have a hard time cutting them apart, so I just ink it twice. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun card, Kathy! I love this set from PTI as well. I do not own it, but have been eyeing it for sure. Your coloring is wonderful. The balloon looks so beautiful against the blue background and distressed grass.
