Mornin' y'all! I didn't get much craft room time yesterday as I had someone come over to repair the furniture that was damaged in the move last year...he did a great job on everything but it kinda took up most of my available time during the day. Here's hoping that things don't get damaged in the *next* move...which will be this summer.
But I did squeak in enough time for one card, and this is it:
I was inspired by the Global Design Project challenge to cut into that balloon pattern:
And it just so happens that balloons are on the inspo list for Festive Friday this time around too:
I used bright colors (Lemon Lolly and Azure Afternoon read as bright to me, plus some Sweet Sorbet accents), twine (I did order the twine that goes along with this DSP, but it doesn't get here until tomorrow), outdoors, large sentiment (Sending Smiles was the largest one I could find in my current stamps), and balloons. Sweet Sorbet is not listed in the colors on this DSP, but there is a darker pinky color that I figured worked well enough with the Sweet Sorbet twine and heart accents. Calypso Coral would work too I think, and it's not on the color list either. Anyway, I went with a very simple card layout so I could use a big piece of that fun balloon pattern. It's cute!
That's it for me today. Cheers, peeps!
