Floating Away....

Something about hot air balloons says Spring to me. Maybe because it would be not a lot of fun and a whole lot of work in the winter and really much too warm in the summer here in Minnesota, lol! Oh, but wouldn't it be amazing in the fall when the colors are changing? Now there is a thought for a future adventure!

I was inspired by Katherine's card here, and I just had to make a pile to send to Operation Write Home. Whimsy is something we can all use :)


Now, after I had made a pile of these, I thought maybe they would have been better with a light blue card base. The Soft Suede doesn't bring it down does it?
  • Stamps: Up, Up, & Away
  • Ink: Midnight Muse, Gumball Green, Primrose Petals, Soft Suede
  • Paper: Soft Suede, Naturals White, Whisper White
  • Other: Big Shot with Cloudy Day ef, Paper Snips, dimensionals
So, Thank You Katherine for your inspiration!

Such a fun card! I love the balloons on top of the clouds! I think it looks fine with the Soft Suede, it brings out the birds.

Oh, I do like this!! It looks good on the Suede but I'm sure it would look good on the other colors, too!

I have never been in a hot air balloon, but this makes me think it would be fun. Love the card.
