This is my sample for CC892. Karen is our hostess and she chose pacific point, gorgeous grape and pear pizzazz for her color trio. Dessert Option this week is anything goes.
For my dessert option, I chose to use a card base from the March 2022 Paper Pumpkin kit. When I saw this kit, I thought the mountain scenery would be a great background for a hot air balloon.
I cut the balloon 3 times in the challenge colors then used the die inlay technique to add the gorgeous grape and pear pizzazz colors back in.
I cut a banner from another die and stamped my Father's Day greeting and my card is finished. I hope you can play along with us this week. The colors are bright and bold and I can't wait to see what will show up in the gallery.

What an inspired idea to add a hot air balloon to this beautiful scene! I love the way you die cut the balloon and got all the challenge colors into it! A great masculine card!

Wonderful idea to use the hot air balloon with that card base. Love the inlaid look on the balloon. Great way to use all the challenge colors. Fun banner for the sentiment. Fabulous card. Love it!
