Up in the Air

A few weeks ago I did a hot air balloon birthday card for CASology- and this week I am doing another one as the theme is:

 
My brother's birthday is tomorrow, so I made him this simple card using the new embossing folder I received yesterday.
 
 
I am still low on white cardstock, so I used a mix of Basic Gray and Not Quite Navy for the base. The navy cardstock strip was embossed with my new Cloudy Days embossing folder, and then I stamped the sentiment in Not Quite Navy. The hot air balloons are from the Up, Up and Away stamp set, and I stamped them in Bravo Burgundy, Garden Green and Night Of Navy, with Basic Gray bases. The balloons are popped up on Foam Squares to make it look like they are floating on the card.
 
I am loving my new embossing folder, and I can't wait to experiment some more as it goes so well with the Up, Up and Away stamp set.
