Here To Give You A Lift

Hello all! Hope you are having a great start to your weekend. My sister was kind enough to let me borrow her camera for a bit, so I have a new card to share with you today...I have had this felt cloud idea in my head since I made this card. I created today's card pretty much the same way. I cut cloud templates from cardstock and found it easiest to hold the template against the felt and then cut out the shape. I then laid out and overlapped the clouds, adhered them with Scor-Tape and trimmed the edge. The left side of the card is covered with Scarlet Jewel cardstock and an embossed curves punched edge (stamped with polka dots in Melon Berry) then wrapped with a melon berry bow.
I thought Melon Berry and Scarlet Jewel hot air balloons (from Everyday Button Bits) would be fitting floating among these fluffy clouds.

Thanks to all of you for putting up with me not having my camera and for all of your sweet and encouraging comments. Have a great weekend!

Maile
