Welcome back to the Clearly Besotted March release countdown teasers. We hope that you are enjoying the inspiration with the new sets so far. Today’s cuteness comes in the form of a little pup floating away. I mentioned at the end of yesterday’s post that he was travelling onto a place where Coronovirus doesn’t exist. I am ever hopeful that may be the case one day!
This lovely set is called Pop Up Travels and I decided that I would use the balloon for my scene and chose to give my avid traveller the opportunity to get away and have a little break. To kick off, I stamped the dog onto some white cardstock and created a mask for him before stamping the balloon over the top. This was then coloured with Copics and fussy cut out.
For my background I used the Cloudy Day stencil and blended Picked Raspberry, Wild Honey and Scattered Straw Distress Inks from top to bottom. I didn’t like the way the clouds took over the whole panel and my image felt a bit lost, so in the end I die cut a cloud border from white cardstock and adhered that at the bottom for a bit more interest.
The balloon was adhered with foam tape and a sentiment from Balloon Bunch Christmas added to the side. I used a few iridescent jewels from Lucy’s cards for a bit of sparkle around the balloon, and I also added black glaze pen to the dogs eyes and some shimmer on the balloon. Of course you can never see the shimmer, but it’s there!
I will be back tomorrow with my fourth teaser for you. In the meantime, don’t forget to be wowed with more countdown teasers by visiting the Clearly Besotted blog, Keren and our two guest designers, Mindy and Adelle. I will be back tomorrow where I am heading out onto the farm. Until then, thanks for stopping by and happy crafting!

This is so super sweet. Can’t wait to be able to fly away myself somewhere – hoping the colour of the sky is just like yours.xx
