When I first saw the
Doodlebug Design Hot Air Balloon Ride cut file, I couldn't wait to use it! I used the Doodlebug Design Citrus and Sunflower cardstock and I Heart Travel collection to cut out and design the hot air balloons. I started to create a travel layout with them, but then I thought they would be so cute on a layout of my niece's first big day of kindergarten! I LOVE that all of the Doodlebug Design collections mix and match so easily and so my hot air balloons coordinate perfectly with the School Days collection!

I adore the School Days Playground Plaid (blue star) patterned paper I used as my main background. It is the perfect shade of royal blue and I love how the Citrus and Sunflower color hot air balloons pop against the blue background. I embellished the top photo with School Days Chit Chat pieces, Odds & Ends pieces, and Mini Icons Stickers. And the You're A Star Sprinkles add the perfect finishing touch, don't you think?

I used the 'LOVE THIS' die cut piece from the I Heart Travel Chit Chat pack for the title on the yellow hot air balloon. I love how the round yellow and green I Heart Travel Sprinkles Shapes add a fun finishing touch to the balloons!

I embellished my second photo with Mini Icons Stickers, Star Sprinkles Shapes, Odds & Ends pieces, and a piece of the adorable Apple A Day Washi Tape. I anchored all of this with a piece of the Good Measure (ruler) patterned paper. And how cute is the journaling on the lined paper Odds & Ends piece?!?
