Hello and Happy Weekend,
It's the 15th of June, a very special day, it's not just my birthday (hooray), but also time for the fifth challenge over at AAA Colourful, and this month we have a beautiful colourboard for you to be inspired by
This time I've opted for a card, and more or less just copied the colourboard with it's lovely blue sky and the red balloon. It's such a gorgeous picture I just had to try to turn it into a card.
I started by ink blending my sky on a card panel, then I die cut, coloured and assembled the ballon before adhering it to the card panel. I die cut a banner and stamped and heat embossed a sentiment on it, and added that to the card panel. Then it was time to adhere the panel to a card base, but should I have a border around the panel or not? At first I wasn't going to, but in the end I decided to go with it. Here's how it turned out
