For this months Color Challenge of pink, orange and brown,  I decided to use the beautiful  Hot Air Balloon die set from Darice. I made 3 different cards using 3 different techniques.

-This first one was done by dragging Versamark ink on the  embossed balloon then I sprinkled pink embossing powder all over it. Then heat set the powder.
