I Like Hot Air Balloons. I like the sketch I've been using in several of my creations even though I've reached the max # entries for that challenge. I did not add a wobble seeing as the Pilot I am. Some of you may know I always tell people I cannot ride a regular bicycle unless it is a Tandem and my hubby is riding up front but I can pilot a single-engine plane. I would not want my Hot Air Balloon wobbling out of control.
I thought the green chevron scrapbook paper was a good choice for paper piecing of my Hot Air Balloon. Maxed on the # entries for the paper piecing challenge also. Used Kraft cardstock for the basket on the Hot Air balloon.
I've even added my nickname "Sunshine HoneyBee" to the card.
Hubby is building a Greenhouse in our backyard for our vegs & such and inside of this will keep the critters out.
