Here's this month's sketch:

And here's the project it inspired:

Bright colours and fun images of hot air balloons combine to create this cheerful card that's perfect to send to a friend.
A Balmy Blue Cardstock layer was stamped with the Rays of Light Cling Stamp using VersaMark™ Ink to create a tone-on-tone watermark effect background. The largest hot air balloon image from the Hot Air Balloon Photopolymer Stamp Set was stamped on Basic White Cardstock using Fresh Freesia Classic Stampin' Ink, and cut out using the coordinating die from the Hot Air Balloon Dies. The smaller basket image was also stamped on Basic White using Pebbled Path ink, die cut, and adhered to the bottom of the balloon. The decorative section to fill the center of the balloon was die cut from Smoky Slate Cardstock, and adhered to the balloon. The sentiment, also from the Hot Air Balloon set, was stamped on a strip of Basic White card using Pebbled Path ink, and adhered to the balloon element using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
The whole balloon element was added to the stamped Balmy Blue cardstock layer using Stampin' dimensionals. Clouds were cut from Basic White using the two dies in the Hot Air Balloon set, and adhered to the Balmy Blue layer by slotting them underneath the raised balloon element. Rainbow Adhesive-Backed Dots in Bubble Bath were added as the final embellishments, and the whole decorated panel adhered to a Basic White folded card base.
