A Little Punch Art and Some Sponged Clouds


Ok so here is my take on a punch art hot air balloon and some sponged clouds....  Using a punch from the SU scallop circle and starting from the top of the page, I randomly sponged to create my clouds...  My suggestion would be to practice on a piece of scrap to get a little comfortable with it.  

Ok then I punched out 5 scallop circles and one small heart from the heart trio punch-glued to the center of one scallop circle and ran all that thru the dotted embossing folder, scored them down the middle and folded them in half.  I alternated between pink and red paper and glued each folded piece together leaving one section open so it can be glued flat on the paper.  (Hope that makes sense...)  I hand cut the balloon basket and then used the pinking hearts border punch for the basket edge....attached to the card with a dimensional.  Added a little natural hemp twine and the sentiment from the Whimsical Words set.  Mounted on bashful blue (I believe) and then a pink pirouette card base.  

I've sponged clouds a few times since this and each time it seems to get easier....  I also find it easier to use multiple scallop circles glued together.
