A Dozen Thoughts 02

Here’s one of the cards we did in Card Club this month.  It uses the new Designer Series paper – Lullaby.  To do this fold you cut the Hello Honey cardstock to 5 1/2 x 7 1/4 and score at 4 1/4.  Here’s the inside –

There are lots of things to celebrate at this time of year!  The Karen Burniston Designer Challenge Team was challenged this month to use the word “fly” as their inspiration.  I started with the inspirational sentiment from Really Good Greetings – thinking “graduation” – and did this card.  

I paper pieced a hot air balloon and added it to the Lucy Label insert.  I love this insert because you can use it for anything!  The “bravo” is from  A Dozen Thoughts.  The Lace tape is retiring – hurry!  Then I added a little line of flags to help celebrate the big event.  Here’s a look at the “mechanics” of the card –
