What do we have here? Well it happens to be a card I made for Heartfelt Creations with a Couture Creations Embossing folder from the World Fair Collection called Ascension. I really would have liked to try my hand at steamp punk with this, but I will another time for sure. This embossing folder really sparked my creative interest.

As you can see in this picture, I cut away parts of the hot air balloon to show the card stock color underneath and give it an airy look. The flowers were inspired by Andrea Ewen's beautiful creation from last week.
