Hi everyone! Here's my take on this weeks Freshly Made Sketch and I even paired it this week with a color challenge from Always playing with paper. Gasp! So out of my comfort zone. It took a while for me to make this as I wasn't all that happy with the balloon.
It just looked plain Jane to me, so I added the banners across it. That die is from Memory Box.
The balloon, bow, tie and birthday are all from My Favorite Things blueprints. The Happy is from Technique Tuesday. I wanted the smaller font that Technique Tuesday has than what was included in the original blueprint collection.
I just realized that I didn't stamp one thing on this card. That has got to be a first for me.
Gotta get back to figuring out a card for the DH's birthday that is right around the corner. I've got a good idea for one but have to play around a bit. Thanks for stopping in.
