Created for the Sunday Postcard Art Challenge where the theme is Hot Air Balloons. The card uses golden paints on the background (teal & green gold) and Ranger dabbers for everything else (Raspberry, Sunshine yellow, Orange, Red pepper). The hot air balloons are die cuts which I painted with the dabbers, and the clouds were cut from scrapbook paper. The birds were added using a Crafter's Workshop stencil.

ReplyDeleteHi Rachel,
ReplyDeleteSo lovely to see you here and I LOVE this page!!
You know how special to me the hot air balloons are don't you? My late Mum wanted to take a flight in one after being told she only had a couple of months left to live... we tried to organise it for her, only she wasn't allowed to go because you have to be able to get up into the balloon unaided.. that put her out :( So the message is 'never give up on your dreams' and 'dont wait until it's too late'
I would love a copy of this one if possible pretty please - Miss you on the streams xxx
