I made this card for the Cardz 4 Guyz 'Up, Up and Away' challenge. I am also entering The Male Room 'Anything Goes' challenge and the Dies R Us Challenge 'Anything Goes with Dies', The card and paper are from my snippets drawer, so I'm also heading into the playground at Pixie's Crafty Workshop.
Card blank: 7" x 5" white silk tent fold
Stamp: 'From the Heart' sentiments (magazine freebie)
Dies: Spellbinders Borderabilities Curved Borders One, Memory Box 'Beautiful Balloon'
Embossing: Kars tan embossing mat
Ink: Versafine Vintage Sepia
Snippets: Bronze, gold, sapphire Stardream card, white card, green and cloud paper
I layered cloud paper onto bronze card and attached it to the card front. I die cut a piece of green paper with the plain curved border, trimmed it to size and stamped the sentiment. This was attached to the lower left corner. I attached another piece of green paper to white card (to add dimension to the front hill) and used the same die to cut another curve. This was then attached to the lower right corner. I die cut and embossed three balloons. The bronze and gold balloons were attached with double sided tape and the blue balloon was attached on top of them with Pinflair glue.

There is lots of dimension here Kath with the balloons and the green hills, and the dp with the pretty blue sky and white puffy clouds is perfect with it and love the sentiment too. x
