Today's card features a Penny Black stamp called 'Airborne'. I stamped it directly on to a Kraft card blank, along with the sentiment from the set, then coloured it using watercolour pencils. I paper pieced the balloons using snippets of patterned paper from the 'Happy Day's pad by My Mind's Eye...adding a little shading with my pencils.
Challenges for this card:
- As You Like It - Clean or Fussy (My cards used to be a little fussier in style, but these days I lean more towards CAS...saves on postage...but I still can't resist using some of my paper mountain!)

Great card Helen! I adore that stamped image and the clever use of patterned papers on the balloons, nice work!
