While a freshman at the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque nearly 30 years ago (boy, really dating myself)…I experienced my first “mass accession” during the balloon fiesta. Imagine a field of over 200 balloons slowly being filled and slowing filling with air, glowing from fire and they lifting above. Who would imagine that 30 years later the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta has become an international event. So, is it any surprise that this bundle was a “must have”?
I have added several versions of how to create balloon cards and please peruse my Video Tutorial where I will provide the “how to’s” and tips for making your own soaring adventure!
