Hot Air Balloon Papers AMB-2447Completed by Pamela Horton The whispering Platypus

I have been using, these beautiful AMB-2447, Cup917114_83483, Clip Art Hot Air Balloon papers as background sheets, as backing papers and as collage papers for the last 3 cards I have uploaded.

There are 16 theme related sheets and I have used #5, #6, #7, #8, #12, and #16.

The first card I have uploaded onto my homepage is Decoupage Butterflies, a design by Diana Hutchinson, cup378516_13. I have used #12 of 16, which is the deep aqua shade with white spots as the backing paper for the card front and on side 1 of the 2 part insert.

I have then used #8 of 16, which is the multi stripe, #8 of 16 as backing papers on the rest of the pages of the insert.

The next card I have uploaded using these papers is a male birthday card. I have used Flying High, a design by Kathleen Francis, cup1025912_3369.

For the card front backing paper I have used #7 of 16 which is a pale dusty pink with tiny white spots and hot Air balloons flying randomly across the page.

I have used this image again on the inside cover and on page 1 of the second insert.

On page 2 , I have used the multi strip #8 of 16 and on the last page of the insert I have used the # 16 of 16, which is the sheet that features the flying hot air balloons with an aqua vertical stripe through the vision.

The card I have uploaded today is Whimsical Cats Collage, cup866211_70151, a design by Janet Giessl. I have presented it in a journal style format using #5 of 16 which is a pink and aqua bold stripe.

I have used this image as the main background for the front of the card and for pages 1, 2, 3 and 4 and also for the inside of the back cover.

I have then used the actual stripes to form frames around the images and the broader pink stripes to write the quirky comments..

I have used the #16 of 16 on the inside cover of the insert, where I have featured the larger cat from cup1025578-25427, Multi Sentiments Tabby Cat, a design by Tracey Hutchins.

The card I have made using Tracey’s Design I have not as yet completed.

Part of the rewards for belonging to the Crafty Bob Community is being able to draw on all of the designers and of any of the purchases made and stored to be able to re-use, at any time on any work in progress or craft project.

I love the feed - back from other crafters, so I always give credits when I use any of the designers work in combination with any completed work.

Thank you for offering this sheet for purchase.

I hope you like what I have done, I was so happy being able to use so many of the sheets from this one purchase.
