Bright Balloons - Stampin' Up!® Balloon Festoon

   I don't know where the last 2 weeks have gone but it seems they have flown by and we are back again for the next CAS Colours & Sketches challenge!  We have a fun and bright color combo this time around.  You can use neutrals on your design but make sure that the challenge colors are the most prominent and you keep it clean and simple!

I decided to do a celebratory card with these fun colors and used the new Balloon Festoon bundle (coming May 5!) for a birthday card.

   This card couldn't be more simple and is a perfect way to use up some DSP scraps!  It starts with a piece of Basic White in which 3 of the smallest balloon shapes are cut out of it using the Balloon Festoon dies.  Then I dug through my stash of DSP to find a pattern in each of the 3 colors and adhered them on the backside of the Basic White panel.  That panel is adhered to a Flirty Flamingo card base which you can't see.

  The sentiment is stamped in Memento black and some retired sequins are added as the final touch.

  I told you it was a simple card!  I hope to see your card in the CAS Colours & Sketches challenge gallery.  You have until May 11 to try out these fun colors!

  Thanks for looking!  Did you stamp today?
