Balloons in the Clouds

I am on a kick to use some challenges again. I am not sure why, perhaps just wanting to be a more active member of the stamping community, or because I have been missing the "challenge" of challenges :) I used to have a couple dozen challenge blogs bookmarked and organized by what day of the week they posted their challenges. Then my computer died back in August. I lost all of those wonderful bookmarks and I now have to start over. Sigh.... oh well!

I had a great time creating this card, and the color combo is not one i would have thought of on my own. But I love how this turned out!

I used lots of foam tape on the back of the watercolor panel, but there is still a little bit of warping. I used a LOT of water when I was watercoloring this :)

And these balloons are embossing too. I think this has a birthday feel to it. What do you think?

I used a couple of challenges for this card:

If any of you know of some great challenges, add them in a comment below and I will check them out!

As always, if you have seen something you need for your crafting life, just click the image and it will take you to my store! If your order is less than $150, please use this month's Host Code: PCUN2KHD

Don't forget to check the box that allows me to contact you so I can send you a lovely thank you card, handmade by me, and most likely a one of a kind card :)
