Hello,

I worked on this page for a couple of days...I created it with some challenges in mind, but I missed one of the deadlines! =)



How-to:
1. Stamp doily and heat emboss in white (repeat 2 more times)
2. Stamp doily in blue several times, as shown
3. Place overlay on left side and stencil in black using the sponge dauber
4. Wipe off ink from embossed images with paper towel or napkin
5. Stamp different images on the left using brown and gray inks
6. Stamp Hot air Ballon on a piece of paper, color it and cut out the top
7. Stamp Hot air Ballon on page and color the flowers/basket
8. Adhere cut out ballon on page; add glitter on flowers and rosette
9. Print the word art, trim it into a banner and ink the edges in blue
10. Finally, stamp a border in gray on banner, as shown, and adhere it on page.
