Happy Friday! I'm stopping in with a card for the new Viva la Verve sketch by Stacey. This is a really fun one, and there's also a gorgeous inspiration photo you can combine with the sketch if wished!
I focused on the sketch for my card.
I've used the fabulous Up Up and Away stamp set to create a little scene. The hot air balloon was paper pieced and the clouds were shaded with copics.
The focal sentiment is stamped on a Banner Bundle die cut and sponged while still in the die.
Here's a peek inside my card...
Be sure to stop by the Viva la Verve blog for some AMAZING inspiration from my fellow divas! If you play along, you could win $100 to spend on some Verve of your own!

ReplyDeleteThat's such a fabulous take on what looks to me like a really complicated sketch! I'd have taken one look and run to hide, but you created something gorgeous instead! Jo x
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely delightful. Love how all the elements form a beautiful whole.
