It's time to share another creation with the Balloon Wishes Stamp Set (D1667.) If you remember from past posts, My friend Karen and I have decided to feature a CTMH product monthly and share our creations with that product each week. Today is my turn!
Watercolors are so hot right now! You can use them as a background, highlight or paint with them. Today I chose to actually paint my stamped image.
Balloon wishes has such a wonderful main image that I thought it would be fun to frame it! First I stamped the balloon with Memento Black. After it dried, it was cut out. I used my CTMH watercolors (Z3132) to paint the image.
Tip...when painting a round image, to help it look more realistic, paint the area darker on the outer images and lighter in the center. This will give the illusion of the light reflecting off the item.
I used Glacier Cardstock for the background and sanded it to give the appearance of a "real" sky. The clouds were cut using one of my CTMH Cricut cartridges and lightly sponged with Whisper ink. Lastly, the "Up Up and Away" was stamped with the black ink, cut out lightly painted and attached to the balloon using pop up dots.

I think this was a great idea! I can see this in a baby's nursery or just a cute little gift for someone.
