just flying by

Hello Friends, How was your weekend? Today is a super quick post with some adorable and versatile images from Lawn Fawn called  “Blue Skies”. It’s fun changing the patten on the balloons and coloring with Copic markers. If you add some fun designs on the balloon you will find that you can forgo the shading and blending.  For the sentiment I used“Flying By” a mini stamp set. (here is a color chart I created with the mini set.) Have a great week, Kathy

P.S. I am so excited that “Summer Card Camp 2” starts today!! I hope to see you in camp. It’s not to late to sign up if you haven’t yet. Here is the link.

    Such a fun card, Kathy! Just love how you colored and embellished those balloons, and what a darling cloud for the sentiment – doodled and shaded so beautifully!
