I made this card for Lauren Meader's My Time to Create Color challenge (MTCC05) and also for a young lady I know who is headed off to college. The color palette today is such a fresh, summery selection! You can check it out on my blog, Mindless Creativity.
I used PTI's Everyday Button Bits set for my main image, but instead of buttons I chose to use patterned paper for my balloons. The paper from the large balloon is the new SU! Razzleberry Lemonade DSP. The medium balloon was created using PTI's Bitty Box Basics. I used a glittery brad as the small balloon that I picked up at Michaels.
More info on this card is listed on my blog, Mindless Creativity. Thanks for taking a peek!

This is so magnificent. I love hot air balloons and you've done such a fantastic job with these images. I especially like all the bold and bright colors/ribbons and scalloped edge you brought to your card.
