Last Day of the Practicing Creativity Release

Happy Friday! It's the last day of the Practicing Creativity December Release and I have another card using the cute Look Up! Additions set for you:

I inked the label lightly while it was still in the die for this "airy" look. The balloon is paper-pieced and adhered with foam tape for a bit dimension. The sentiments coming with this set are perfect for the balloon theme!

I hope you enjoyed the peeks of the new Practicing Creativity releases - I enjoyed working with these and am really honored Courtney asked me to do so! Be sure to see what the other girls prepared for today:

Nature's Wonder

Happy Thursday! Day 2 of this month's Practicing Creativity release! Today I have a card using the beautiful set Nature's Wonder that will be available on December, 3rd:

I love the huge outlined words included in the set! I colored the "Sympathy" with distress ink that I spritzed with water (that was mixed with some Perfect Pearls for a bit of shine). For my panel I used watercolor paper, inked the stamps with distress inks and spritzed these with water, too. Here is a close-up of the sentiment:

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!
