Sail Away with Clyde



Hi  everyone! Today is Tuesday, so that means new release day at Bugaboo Stamps! Are you ready for new cuties?! I hope you said yes, because we surely do have some new cuties for you! There's lots of creative goodness to show off one of one of the new images - Clyde Hot Air Balloon, over at Catch The Bug, so go check out the wonderful creations from the rest of the DT! You're going to love them!

Here's my card, featuring one of today's new release images, Clyde Hot Air Balloon, from Bugaboo Stamps. Clyde is flying up up and away, today - Is he coming to visit YOU? He's colored with Promarkers. I paper pieced the hot air balloon and the basket he's riding in.  All papers are by Recollections and are from my stash. I doodled two clouds by hand and cut them out, then outlined them with Promarkers and blended them, then matted them with an aqua colored paper. The image is attached with foam mounting tape for dimension, so he'll look like he's sailing through the clouds.

My card layout uses the sketch from Sunday Sketch And Stamp.
