I was so thrilled to receive a message from Mary asking me to be guest designer for April! A big Thank You to the design team for putting your confidence in me! For this card I found such a cute layout, I had to case it: Up, Up and Away by stampinandstuff at Splitcoaststampers I made my pool dp with a bg stamp, sponged all the dp's, popped up the balloons and 1/2 of the senti., added some grosgrain ribbon, & a button with ribbon. For the dessert: 1-used dp, 2-made my own dp, 3-added a fourth color, 4-used stripes, 5-popped something up, 6-used a border punch for a fancy edge, 7-added ribbon. I think that covers it all! Thanks for stopping by today! ~Roberta

Roberta this is just the cutest card. I love your balloons and your little silhouette clouds. The whole layout flows so smoothly. Your border treatment with the ribbon and edging are perfect for this image. And congrats too for being asked to guest design for the cc. I loved it when I did it!! It is such an honor and you will do this challenge proud
