I wanted to pop in and share another cutie card I made while at my friend Katie's place. This one is remarkably different from the card I posted yesterday. I used the fun Fusion Challenge for inspiration, and chose to use Lesley's picture of that sweet red umbrella.
To start, I took a piece of patterned paper, and stamped some clouds (Mama E's new Sunny Skies) using white pigment ink. I then splattered on some white mist from Studio Calico and rounded the corners.
I then stamped the hot air balloon image, fussy cut it out and adhered it to my card front, above a bit of stitching and the stamped basket. To finish it off, I stamped my sentiment from Filigree, and adhered it to my card base. Of course, we can't forget a sprinkle of bling...
Here is the inspirational pic:
Oh, before I go, I just wanted to mention that I have updated my For Sale page, so wander over and see if there is anything you might want...Free shipping, seriously...who doesn't love that?!

This is a lovely interpretation of the inspiration photo. ;-) I love the speckles and clouds in the background, and the perfect pop of red in the balloon. Beautifully done. Thank you for joining our Fusion challenge this week. ;-)
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely card, Lindsay! The red balloon floating in the star-speckled and softly clouded sky is beautiful and serene. Wonderful interpretation of FUSION; simply wonderful! Hope your day is as delightful as your card!
