Summertime Dream Theme!
Welcome to our Saturday Blog Hop at Create With Stamping Friends. Our team has been busy for our Summertime Dream theme this week. Every summer for many years now, I attend a balloon festival with my daughter and three grand girls. It’s always amazing and my first thoughts was hot air balloons when I decided what to use for my project:
The Hot Air Balloon Bundle is fun to play with because you can create different sized hot air balloons. I decided to use the same size for all three in three different colors: Lemon Lime Twist, Petunia Pop and Summer Splash:
Stampin’ Up! Products Used:
- Stamps: Hot Air Balloon
- Inks: Lemon Lime Twist, Petunia Pop, Summer Splash, Night Of Navy
- Cardstock: Night Of Navy, Basic White, Balmy Blue
- Tools & Accessories: Hot Air Balloon Dies, Rhinestone Basic Jewels, Stampin’ Dimensionals
Card Recipe:
- Card Base: Night Of Navy Cardstock 11 x 4-1/4. Score and fold at 5-1/2.

- Layer 3: Balmy Blue Cardstock 4-3/4 x 3-1/2. Stamp the sentiment at the right and about 2″ from the bottom with Night Of Navy Ink. Glue to card front.
