Love Is In The Air

Welcome to another biweekly challenge at My Sheri Crafts! Design team sister Sandy challenges us with a Valentine project that contains a heart. I decided to make an air balloon using an SVG file from SVG cuts, and a matching post card. The designer paper is Heartstrings, from the Seasonal Expressions Catalog from Close To My Heart. The Cupid bear is from Teddy Bear parade, and was cut at 3". I added some Red Enamel Hearts on both the air balloon and the post card. I embossed the Lagoon Cardstock panels of the balloon with Heart Embossing Folder. The balloon's basket and the "rope" also had White Shimmer Trim, Red Shimmer Trim, and Teal Shimmer Trim. The tassels were made using Cranberry Twine. At the top of the balloon is a cluster of mini roses from Prima and Pixie Extra Thick Twine.
