Cut a Hot Air Balloon from white cardstock and

 the pattern sheets. Adhere the tabs with red 

double sided tape and assemble accordingly.

Cut a few shapes and bows with some

 cutting dies for decoration.

Note: the bows have been fasten with a brad, 

but I decided to use the G45 door knobs 

for the center instead.

Cut two borders from the pattern sheets

 and punch the one side with a doily punch.

Fussy-cut some elements from the 8x8 

paper pad and ephemera pack.

Add a chain to the bows before 

adding all the embellishments. 

Add some flowers and wire embellishment.

Add some acetate butterflies for 

extra decoration.

Tuck in some of the die-cut assortment

 elements behind the flowers.

Matt the sticker onto a piece of pattern

 paper fussy-cut and add an eyelet to the hole. 

Add a ball chain through the hole and 

then through one of the loops of the bow.

Decorate the top section of the Hot 

Air Balloon with some ephemera, 

stickers and chipboard.

Happy Papercrafting!
