Hello friends! A quick post with my card for this week's
Less is More challenge. The challenge this week is to make a card that has something that you find up in the air. I immediately thought of my new Hero Arts/Operation Write Home set: Happy Birthday. This set has a fun hot air balloon, a cloud as well as a balloon bouquet. I used the balloon bouquet and the cloud for my card.
I stamped three clouds using pale blue ink and then the balloon bouquet using black ink. I then stamped the balloon bouquet on three diffrent papers from the BasicGrey Fiction 6x6 pad, trimmed them out and then paper pieced them. A banner was cut using a My Favorite Things Fishtail Flag Layers Stax die and the sentiment stamped on it. I trimmed the banner, adhered it to the card and then added a little button/twine embellishment. I seem to be stuck on making those little embellies right now!
Thanks for stopping by...
Supplies: Cardstock: PTI white; Stamps: Hero Arts: Ink: Stampin Up! and Memento; Dies: My Favorite Things; Button: PTI; Twine: The Twinery

Pretty balloons, Rosemary! Love the subtle clouds too!
Simplicity of design is hard to achieve while still making the card interesting. This is just lovely and what a nice card to receive. Thanks for the description of your process, it so enhances the final artwork.
