Lawnscaping fit team blog hop... Dark blue



Hello.
Its blog hop time again from the Lawnscaping Facebook inspiration team.
Our theme this month is "Dark Blue" and we are sponsored by The ink road who are generously giving one  commenter a $25 gift certificate, be sure to leave an email address so if your the lucky winner you can be contacted.
You should have come from  the lawnscaping blog   and each of us will have a full hop list  to make things easy along the way.


My dark blue comes in the form of the fabulous balloon from Lawn fawns  blue skies stamp set.
I stamped the balloon and coloured with prisma colour pencils and i fussy cut it out even though i have the dies lol....  I die cut the balloon from Kraft card stock as well and then adhered the coloured one to it.


The rest of the card is very simply put together.
The clouds are from the blue skies matching die set and the other dies used are the stitched rectangles and scalloped rectangles both from Lawn fawn.
Your next stop on the hop is  the extremely talented Kim :D

Your full hop list is here 


Thanks so much for stopping by.

  1. I'm fond of Hot Air Balloons and like how you put this together. I also used the Hot Air Balloon colored red/blue w/ different sentiment from the set for One Layer Challenge.

  23. Fabulous card design! Your Prismacolor pencils are so cool - lots of texture without using a blending solution and you kept reflections from light source :) I love it!
