The balloons in our challenge badge are so much fun, that this week they inspired me to dig out any stamps I had featuring balloons. I settled on a retired set, Balloon Adventures and with the awesome sketch at CAS(E) This Sketch in hand....here's what I made:
I let the colors from a retired DSP pack, Cherry on Top, take center stage with my bouquet of festive balloons. Pool Party, Bermuda Bay, Crushed Curry, Cucumber Crush, and Calypso Coral (not in the paper pack but I liked it anyway!) Since the sketch challenge is a clean-and-simple one, I kept the design verrrry simple. Just a piece of balloon string paper for the background and the punched balloons.
I did add a liberal amount of Wink of Stella to the polka dots and stripes for a little bit of glam. Stop on by The Paper Players to check out all the inspiration from my teammates during this second week of our celebration! I hope you will find time to play along before the challenge closes on Friday, July 13th at Noon (PST). You don't want to miss out on these prizes!!

Super fun take on the sketch! I love that sentiment— those fonts are great together!
The balloons look wonderful.
This is so perfectly formed, Nance. The paper you've picked is just right - subtle, interesting and in theme. The balloons are great - and I think the Calypso Coral lifts the whole bunch. The silver ties - I love that cording trim. My stash of it is diminishing. It's a great card.
Not only are those balloons festive with stripes and dots and wonderful colors, the background is beautiful too! Love the silver balloon cords all tied together too!
What a great card for a celebration Nance - love the silver strings and touch of sparkle on the balloons too! This would be a great card to make a few for my stash - I feel a CASE coming on and I have some of that background paper too! Thanks for the inspiration this week!
Such a lovely and cheerful card. Love the balloons!
Nance... so clean and lovely as always! Great card!
Another great card for the celebration! Super fun and I just love the touch of Stella accents. Hugs.
Nance, this is perfect for anyone! Love those polka dot and striped balloons! Great color combo and love the Wink of Stella! SUPER fun card! I sure hope you have a great weekend! XX
Nance, I LOVE this! It’s so bright and cheery with the color combo you used. The DSP is the perfect touch. Thank you so much again for asking me to join you all for this milestone challenge. I miss you all dearly! Big hugs, my friend! :)
