Todays challenge is 'something that flies' - so I broke open a stamp set that has never seen the light of day *guilty face* I gently chalked the background and stamped the image onto stiffened dsp, cut it out and popped it up with foam pads.

I am so impressed with your soft, subtle bg.... obviously, soft and subtle are 2 words that never happen on my bgs. You added just the right amount of color. Great idea to use print dp for the balloon. It appears like it could just float off the paper.

Wonderful look you have achieved with this understated card. The balloon looks fabulous cut from the text paper, and the little birds are a perfect addition.
