Guest Designer for Practicing Creativity

Happy Wednesday! I am honored to be Guest Designer for Courtney from Practicing Creativity this month! Two new, fabulous stamp sets will be available on December, 3rd and you'll love them! First is an additions set to the famous Look Up! set featuring cute hot air balloons. I used it in a different way for my first card:




This happened accidentially - I was playing around with the set and had the cut-out balloons lying there and suddenly they looked like birthday balloons to me. Happy little accidents :)

To see more samples with the Look Up! Additions, visit Courtney's blog here! And be sure to come back tomorrow for more of this release!

Thanks for visiting and have a beautiful day!

Hugs,
Vanessa x

Supplies:
Cardstock: Papertrey Ink
Patterned Paper: October Afternoon
Stamps: (Look Up! Additions) Practicing Creativity, (Birthday sentiment) Hero Arts
Ink: Tsukineko
Border Punch: EK Success
Other: Black Floss
