Another day at the gym...more stationary bike. I have to see about getting my bike fixed soon. Hoping that I can ride again in another few weeks, but the bike needs to be fixed soon. And they had to cut off my favorite bicycling shirt, so need to find a new favorite!
Time for another challenge over at CAS on Sunday. The theme for this challenge is Balloons! Super fun lots of fun things to do with this theme. I focused on using a new die cut set that I haven't had a chance to use yet. Here's what I came up with!
I started by creating a mask for my balloons. I then used distress ink to apply color, in rainbow order. Ensuring that I had applied a bit of the darker color on the bottom and used a lighter color on top.
I then die cut my sentiment...it took me awhile to figure out what color to use...yellow, red, green...finally I settled on teal. I added a bit of distress ink to the sentiment for a bit of dimension.
I thought I was done at this point, but it looked a little empty so I added some mini stars and teal confetti.
Here's a close up....this is a flat card for easy mailing!
Hope to see what you come up with!

ReplyDeleteGorgeous card, Susan. I looooove the bright colours and the sentiment. Hopefully your bike is fixed soon and that you can go out cycling again. I can imagine that you miss it. Luv, Wilma
