My Beautiful Balloon!

This week's MFP SpeedyTV Inspiration Challenge is all about Hot Air balloons. I used the MFP Hot Air Balloons mini set.


I used Brushos which are my new favorite color medium. Just swiped the cardstock with water, sprinkled on the Brushos in three different colors and heat set. Then I stamped the image, added some liquid pearls, and stapled on the sentiment. Quick, easy, and super fun.

Hope you will join us in the challenge! Hugz

    The different colored Brushos combined beautifully for this backdrop for the great balloon. Ideal sentiment and the fishtail banners are just the right amount of add-ons. Have a terrific day.

    I just LOVE the background and the tags on the side give the impression of ribbon flying in the wind, rather like a kite tail! Great idea, super card!

    Um.....maybe I should try some Brushos! My watercoloring leaves a lot to be desired I'm afraid! This looks like watercoloring but is so intense and beautiful! LOVE your card!
