Hot Air Balloon

I made this Hot Air Balloon for one of the grandkids birthdays...
very colorful and bright.....
I used the Cheery Lynn Notre Dame Cathedral die for the balloon
and Spring Basket 2 for the basket...
for the ballon part, I adhered it to sticky paper
added micro glitter I colored with Copics
only the top opens......
I might add a few little animal characters to "ride" before I give it....
 
 
Just for fun, I am entering it into the challenge at the Cheery Lynn Designs challenge blog
to make a "shaped card"

This is really beautiful. It is so nice to see the dies used in such an innovative way. You were very good with all that glitter!! The animals sound like an excellent idea.

What a great idea Diane to use the Notre Dame doily for the balloon and the basket. I bet your grandson/granddaughter is gonna love this. And all that glitter, that must have taken a while to do, but it looks fabulous. Thanks for playing along this week at Cheery Lynn Designs.
