Creative Tuesdays - Taking Flight

Here's my contribution to Creative Tuesdays "Taking Flight" theme. I hope you can see that these are hot air balloons! It's my usual water colour crayons on water colour paper. Would you go up in one of these? Not me!

Love the softness of your balloons... it's on my Bucket List to ride in one.

Jenny said...

Fantastic colours! I'm with Wanda and
QMM...on my list of things to do! :)

Funny that we were on the same wave length. I like your balloon trio very much and, no, I am much too chicken to ever go up in one.

Betsy Brock said...

Oh, how fun! I've taken a hot air balloon ride before...there is nothing quite like it!

Christine said...

Thanks for your lovely comments everyone! I should mention the colours I used were inspired by a bowl of miniature m&m chocolate candies I had sitting around dangerously beside me.

TBM said...

These are great, Christine! And NO WAY would I go up in one of these. I saw somewhere a hot air balloon company that offered rides in a balloon whose basket had glass in the bottom. NO THANK YOU.

Christie, Describe Happy said...

I was totally thinking about hot air balloons for this theme! Love the colors you picked! Fantastic!
