Balloons make me happy.

Thank you for participating in this card drive, and thanks to my sample makers, too! I hope you are inspired by these beautiful samples!
And chicken balloons make you even happier, I am guessing ;-).
I like red balloons, they always remind me of the classic French short film. But pink ones were fun too .

The lost balloon in this reminds me of the Peanuts strip when Lucy gives Snoopy her balloon to hold for rher and he lets go - and wonders if life will be ever worth living again.
Last night I came across the perfect stamp that I could have used for the hope floats challenge & was a little bummed I had forgotten about it. Its perfect for this challenge! yay! As soon as the coast is clear I will be on it!

Pink balloons would make anyone happy, Jeanne. I had fun with this challenge and is one of the few that I have made for HYCCT14 that does not involve another daily challenge. Thanks.
What a great challenge! I used this stamp from MFT's PI Costumed Cuties- and added some balloons, along with an embossed stone-like background. Finished with a light green yarn border. Here's Prehistoric Party Girl

Thank you! I had fun with this.
I got a paper crafting injury while making this card. LOL! My very sharp pointed scissors fell into my lap. In an attempt to catch them I ended up pushing the scissors deeply into my leg. UGGG! How do I manage to do this to myself? LOL!

Jeanne, this was a really neat idea for a challenge for HYCCT. At first I didn't think I had any balloon images but dug these out from a birthday set. Hope you like where the challenge took me. Simple, but hopefully uplifting.

How can you go wrong with a chicken balloon? Ha!
