Feel Better Soon!

Hello friends!  Audrey here with my second post as guest designer for the month of December!  As soon as I saw the super adorable Heffy Doodle Hot Air Balloon, I knew I had to have it!  This card uses also uses one of the cute little critters from the Bed Heads stamp set.  To create my card, I started off by painting a piece of watercolor paper with Salvaged Patina Distress Ink to create a sky.  I diecut all of the pieces of the balloon, using pink and coral cardstock for the main part of the balloon, teal and aqua cardstock for the accents, and woodgrain cardstock for the balloon basket.  The little bear from the Bed Heads stamp set was colored with Copic markers and fussy cut with my scissors, though if you prefer, there are coordinating Bed Heads Dies available.

I added a trio of clouds to the sky around the balloon.  The dies that I used have a coordinating frame die, but you could achieve a very similar look with the Swirly Cloud Dies or the Big Stitched Cloud Dies, along with some gold Stickles around the edges.  A sentiment from the Bed Heads stamp set was stamped on a banner diecut and popped up near the top of the card.   I added a scattering of tiny glittery stars from my stash, and some white gel pen accents to finish off my card.

I am so thrilled and thankful to have been asked to guest design this month!  Heffy Doodle products are so  much fun, and make creating a dream!  Thank you to Lesley and crew for having me!  If you have enjoyed my projects, I would love if you would give me a follow on my blog and on Instagram!  Wishing you all a happy, healthy and blessed 2022!
