Hot Air Balloon - In Colors

Photo Details

Poster: TrishG

I made this card for the color challenge. I used all 5 In Colors. I really came to like all the colors although my least favorite is Poppy Parade. I really love the pink, orange and green and will miss them.

The layout is from Stamping 411...

I really like your use of paper for the background for the balloon.
