Sending Smiles

 Hello and welcome back! According to my Sandra Boynton "Every Day's a Fabulous Holiday" calendar, today is Hot Air Balloon Day. So naturally, today's card features a hot air balloon!

I used the challenge at Try Stampin' on Tuesday for inspiration - the sketch for the design and the optional pattern mixing. I also entered the card at Double Trouble Challenges.



Once again, this card went together pretty easily. The DSP coordinated with the stamp set and I used the coordinating die set to cut the balloon. Layering Circles and Nested Labels completed the design, with a few rhinestones added for bling!


I'm hoping to make cards for a few more of those "fabulous" holidays, but a couple of them might be tricky. I might have to skip "National Earl Day"!




Thanks for stopping by, and happy stamping!

--Cindi

    Cindi, what a cute card! Love all the layers and pattern papers you chose!! A perfect combination card by using Double Trouble's requirement for dies, and Try Stampin' on Tuesday's sketch and "pattern mixing" optional challenge. Thank you so much for participating in both challenges and sharing your creative talents!!! -Donna
