Hot Air Balloon Anniversary

Happy Saturday!

Today, I have the 25th anniversary card I made for Mark.  I found this die set from InLoveArtShop which has the hot air balloon, clouds and dies to create a stunning break in the clouds.  I used PTI white, Pure Poppy, Kraft and Spring Rain cardstock.  

The break in the clouds are 2 dies.  The larger was cut from white cardstock and smaller from metallic silver cardstock.  I used silver from our 25th anniversary.  The white and silver layers were adhered together and attached to the blue base card with pop dots. 

To create the 3D balloon I cut the base balloon out of Kraft cardstock.  Then cut the top of the balloon out of Pure Poppy cardstock 4 times and folded and glued them together to create a fan that folds down to put in an envelope. The balloon was attached to the blue base card. 

I added a few small clouds to the different layers and a Happy Anniversary sentiment. The sentiment is from PTI Cut away tags Summer, stamped on Kraft cardstock that I cut as a fish tail flag.

Fun Stampers Journey - Lakeside Birthday

Happy Saturday!

Today, I have a couple masculine birthday cards to share.  I used several retired stamps from Fun Stampers Journey, the main images are from FSJ "Lakeside".  The image is created with 3 separate stamps, the rocks and grasses in the forefront are separate stamps, and it is colored with Copic markers.   

I also used a couple background stamps.  FSJ "Script" background, I stamped on the PTI Spring Rain cardstock with Spring Rain ink.  On the PTI Chocolate cardstock I stamped the fishnet background from FSJ "Background Basics 2".

The Happy birthday is from PTI Birthday III Stamp set.  I had some cord twine laying on my desk, which I knotted and added to the front to finish the card. 

Copic Colors:  YG91, YG93, YG95, E31, E33, E35, B0000, B14, B24, C1, C2
