Balloon Bear



Remember the time where nearly all our cards had lace on, I have box load to use. I decided to use it on this card with this LOTV bear image. I used the digi so to paper piece the balloon I used different bits of card over the image and reprinted it.

Before I layered and paper pieced I used a cloud stencil to make some background clouds and I used my favourite Spellbinder Floral Oval probably retired now but still a firm favourite in my craftroom.

The papers are quite busy and once I added the lace and ribbon I couldn't work out what to add so just added some La La Land corners.

I spy with my little ey and bit of red tape clinging to my card do you!

Love the colours of your card Debby and a cute image....yes like you I have a box full of lace too but like all things I’m sure it’ll be back! I had to look for the red tape but just spotted it ...had you not mentioned it don’t think I would have noticed.

I love the cute bear Debby and the paper piecing with those pretty papers in the background look great, also some beautiful embellishments with the oval mat, corners and lovely ribbon and lace. I only noticed the red tape though after you mentioned it. A fantastic card. x

I love it when you make this style of card Debby. I still love using lace. In fact used some today. It is funny how fashions change. I sold my floral oval die as it was so hard to get the card out of the die without ripping it and all those fiddly bits to pop out annoyed me. Looks lovely on your card though. Love your paper piecing.
