Clearly Besotted June Teasers Day 3

Hi everyone! By now you probably all now that I often follow a theme through, and today is no exception. I’ve created a slightly odd scene, imagined from the corners of my weird brain! I’m using the new Balloon Bunch Line Up set.

I started imagining an under-the-sea balloon party where the balloons were giving off bubble a little like champagne does in a glass. Why those critters are able to hold their breath under water? No idea- they’re obviously magical. Why are the balloons bubbling? Again, no idea. And why have I added a seagull from yesterday’s set? Truthfully- it was left over on my desk and it seemed to be a good addition to the scene. Am I weird? Obviously!

The balloons are easy to colour. You can see that not even bothered to blend the colours. I wanted to show those of you who are new to using alcohol ink markers, that you can get fun depth even with doing the easiest things. You can also see that I’ve wrapped the vellum around a piece of card that I’ve mounted to the base, which is a great way of hiding adhesive behind the transparent vellum.

What occasion would you send this card for? No idea, but it would certainly make me smile, albeit quizzically if I received it in the post!

I love playing around with opacity and transparency and seeing what effects they can have on my projects. Definitely recommend you try it too. Makes you feel all experimental 😉 haha!

There’s plenty more to feast your eyes upon with Clearly Besotted either on their Facebook page or Instagram account.

Please now pop over to see lovely Michelle, and our lovely guests Francine, Kitty, and Alberto .

See you tomorrow when we’ll have something buzzy instead.

See you tomorrow,
