OTWC Challenge #26

I just loved all the fresh springy colors of this week's OTWC challenge.

To be honest, these colors are right up my alley!

Here is the inspiration photo and the color palette from what we

worked with this week!  

I decided to take my inspiration from the balloon colors above and

use my Up, Up, and Away stamp set from PTI.

Lots of Copic coloring....not sure I'd want to do that much all the time but it was fun!

Well, I had to work "green" in there somewhere so I use my grass Die-namics to cut

some Simply Chartreuse felt.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Papertrey May Blog Hop Challenge!!!

Hello!!  Welcome to another PTI blog hop!!  This month we were challenged to use

FELT!!

Well, I decided to pair some felt with my new Up, Up, and Away stamp set!! 

Who doesn't love fluffy white clouds to look at with hot air balloons?

Here in Topeka KS, we have an annual hot air balloon festival called Huff 'n Puff and it's always so much fun to see these things up close!!  We've even done a tethered ride....pretty neato!!

Lot's of dimension here paired with the felt........I just love how the balloons seem to be in front of the clouds!!  This felt is actually from HL and comes in a stiff "sheet" as I only have Hawaiian Shores felt thus far!  Although, I have more on my wish list!!

I even used a bonus image from this set to hand stamp my own hot air balloon!!!  This was stamped in Spring Moss ink.  Pretty fun how you can make your own pattern!!  Possibilities are endless!!

This last image of my card shows using the medium scallop die to die cut a border of felt!!  Again, kinda looks like clouds there too!!

My last little project using felt actually uses some of my coveted Hawaiian Shores felt paired with more HL felt in PTI matching colors!  My model is my sweet daughter.....I made this cute cute hair clip using several of the Beautiful Blooms flower dies.  Hand sew a button on and hot glue a clip and whalaaa!!! 

An instant hair clip!!

Hope you have a fun time blog hopping!! 

Thanks so much for visiting and leaving such nice comments!!
