Up up and away

Today I have created a card for my good friend Kylie, her best friend is moving away and she needed a cared to farewell her.

I immediately went to my favourite digi stamp designers to find the perfect image and came up with this cute hot air balloon from Meljens Designs.  I created my own sentiment and used a cute chalkboard font.

The image itself has been coloured using Copics, a touch of gloss on the heart and some Perfect Pearls.  I also doodled some borders.

I used a sketch from The Sweet Stop: SSS225
