Hello and Happy Saturday! Today I'm sharing a card created with the new Hot Air Balloon Digital Stamp Set from Varada Sharma. This image is part of the larger Sweet Summer Release for July 2022. This set contains a Balloon image with flowers as I've used here and a Balloon with the flowers separate.
I've colored the image with alcohol markers and fussy cut in order to pop on craft foam for dimension. I wanted to create a focal cluster and the idea of mixing a bit of vintage with the modern came to mind. I shopped my stash and came across a DCWV (Die Cuts with a View) 12x12 paper stack of lovely shabby chic-like papers and knew I found the perfect background.
After a bit more "shopping" the stash, I found vintage ticket ephemera and thought one would be lovely as a travel theme. I also die cut a harlequin checked scalloped oval to mount the cluster on. The sentiment is from Gina K. Designs and was given to me in a card swap. To finish off the design, I've added light pink gems for extra sparkle.
That's all I have for today. I invite you to visit the Varada Sharma Designs Shop HERE for the July 2022 release and more beautiful sets. Until next time, Happy Crafting!
