Hot air balloon

I am house sitting for friends again this week for 3 days as they are away on holiday/celebrating again.  Here is the card I made for my dear friend RJP, and it was also a practice run for a 60th birthday card that a friend has asked me to make for her mum (a much more extravagant version with a feminine theme).

It's a simple white card blank with 3 of the balloons cut out of DSP and then stuck together.  I cut the basket out of card stock and embossed with a spotty design.  The cute sun stamp is from the Stampin' Up! set Every Little Bit.  A simple card but I hope he will like it as it has a sort of holiday theme and seems appropriate for the occasion.

I've entered this into:

Stampin' for the Weekend - 'holidays'

Sew Many Cards - 'summertime'

Cards for Men - 'anything goes'
