3 D Hot Air Balloon Shadow Box

Hot Air Balloon Shadow Box

Hi friends I am on a mission to use my craft supply stash , especially my hoarded papers .Sharing a shadowbox  made with my stash of Graphic 45 papers and featuring a 3 D Hot Air balloon 

3 D Hot Air Balloon
The  Hot Air Balloon was made using a Spellbinders die [also featured in this post : Travel Themed Card].Added flowers fussy cut from the papers over the balloon.

3 D Hot Air Balloon
Added clouds cut from glitter foam as a border around the balloon and also on the top of the shadowbox.Made the clouds appear at different depths by propping them on different length of rolled foam cylinders  .

3 D Hot Air Balloon
My favourite is the glass ball with crystal beads. Hung it from the foam cylinder support behind the cloud.

3 D Hot Air Balloon
Made the dreamy bench by staggering and layering silver and white bench die cuts and giving it a turquoise blue background .

3 D Hot Air Balloon
The bicycle  was made by layering 3 layers of glitter foam and cardstock so that it was thick enough to stand on it own.

All the roses were handmade using dies and foam.
