Up, Up, and Away (posted by Judith)

Hi folks, well this is the last of my samples for this batch of cards. I have had so much fun creating my projects with these great stamps, and still have so many ideas that I want to make. I have combined Crafty Individuals stamps and the new Artistic Expressions stamps in this project.

I started by creating a background with Distress inkpads, and using a Crafter's Workshop template, sponging some colour through, and then stamping the large swirl over the top. I stamped the large 'inspire' in the bottom right hand corner. I stamped the ballon stamp onto another piece of card, and coloured that with Distress inkpads too. I stamped several Crafty Individuals clocks, and cut them out, arranging them around the balloon image, as if it were travelling through time. I added some Glossy Accents to the clocks. I decoupaged the balloon image, curving the balloon before I attached it to the card. Finally, I added some texture paste through the Mini Punchinella template from Crafter's Workshop, which I coloured with gold paint when the stars were dry.

Thanks for stopping by, Judith xx
