Hot, Hot, Hot

Hello Nomad friends.  It's been quite a nice day today.  No wind, no rain, some sun and I picked my first ripe tomato!!  This year hasn't been a very good year for the tomatoes here.  Everyone I have spoken too here has had no success with the toms.  Very curious as our friend Alice was wont to say.  Anyway, let's celebrate blue skies and fresh mountain air with a hot air balloon ride........

I used a summer blue sky base card and cut Poppystamps Stitch Grand Mountains from scraps of green and silver card.  I am sure there is still snow on big mountains in summer, but I was going for rock rather than snow.   I used Poppystamps Hot Air Balloons die cut from scraps of red, yellow and brown card.  I used a pencil to highlight the embossed lines on the balloons, add some texture to the baskets and join the baskets to the balloons.  The sentiment is cut from a designer paper sheet and says congratulations for the day.  

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz

    Funny reading about your tomatoes - I haven't planted any yet waiting another month for the weather to be warmer at night here in Australia.

  3. Looks like a lovely day. My toms won't go in until late October! Too many frosty Spring nights yet to risk it. Thanks for sharing with Unstampabelles
