This week at
it's Brenda's turn to choose the challenge and she's saying, "All Tied Up!" which means she wants to see ribbon or twine on your project.
This is what I did....
After I made this and took a good look at it, I realized that the balloons are way out of portion for the size of the bear. I mean, we could have an Up situation here. Then I remembered that it's not very often bears wear hats, so I could stop worry about how realistic my card is.
Digi is from Scraps and Designs.

Fabulous and fun Jan, I thought of UP too, but only because it bought back a childhood memory where my brother and I bought a jumbo balloon each from Woolworths in those days and blew these things up and they were enormous....then he popped mine and it blew half my face skin off and my eye brows, so didn't end up happy, but I LOVE your cute card..

Ha ha! Gottta love a bear in a hat. Super, cute card and I love how you made the balloon strings xxx
ReplyDeleteSuper cute, Jan! Love the image and your balloons and I think they look just perfect (wouldn't even have thought of the size if you hadn't brought it up). Awesome paper choices, too, and great use of the wave die-cut for the ground.
ReplyDeleteHi Janr the card is beautiful, the bear is delicious and the choice of cards perfect with the image. Thanks for joining to play with Dream Valley Challenge Tatiana x DT
ReplyDeleteToo cute! The balloons look bigger because they're in the foreground and look awesome. Love the Buffalo plaid balloon. Lots of fun die cuts in this design. Thanks for sharing with A Cut Above's March Challenge.
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute and I like the masculine colours of the card.
