Hello and welcome to my blog; today I am going to share with you a card that I designed using the Above the Clouds Bundle form the 2019 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog. As you may know my current online class features the Above the Clouds bundle. You can find details on that here. This is a great companion card for that class. Here's a look at my card.

I stamped the hot air balloons from the Above the Clouds Stamp Set in Night of Navy and Granny Apple green and then punched them out using the matching Hot Air Balloon Punch. You can get both the punch and the stamp set as a Cost Saving Bundle and you save 10% when you do so. I then used a piece of the 2019-2021 In Color Designer Series Paper in Pretty Peacock as my background piece. And, then matted it with a piece of Granny Apple Green Cardstock. All that was put on a Pretty Peacock Top folding Card base measuring 4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/5 (A4 metric 10.5 cm x 29.7 cm scored in half). I added a piece of whisper white on the inside with a little piece of matching designer series paper.

I then stamped my sentiment on a piece of scrap whisper white and angled the end on one side. I stamped it in Granny Apple Green ink to match the rest of the card. To add a little extra dimension I added a few Stampin' dimensionals behind it.

That finishes my card for today, I hope that you have a wonderful fourth of July if you are in the States, and a wonderful day if you are international. Remember to stay safe and keep your eyes in the sky you just may see one of these fun Hot air balloons soaring over head.

Happy Stampin'

Rick
