Balloons are the theme of my last couple of cards. This one is in yellow, purple and white, with a charcoal grey sentiment. Watercolouring, stamping and hand cutting. I was going to have two balloons on each card and a bigger yellow panel, but cutting it down to match the shape of the square card base and having two clouds to make up the Power of Three seemed to work better.
This one is entered in CAS Colours and Sketches #213. I couldn’t put too much grey in it, as it would have looked rainy instead of a sunny adventure!

Also in CAS-ual Fridays Off The Edge challenge
and though balloons are unisex I think this one is more masculine so entering at Cards 4 Guyz CAS challenge #160
I did another version of this. In orange and yellow instead – trying to give it a gentler look. I think I prefer it with the purple and grey though.

Entering this one in Cards in Envy: Keep it simple
and Seize the Birthday: Anything Goes

My balloon flies off.
Watching it drift in the blue,
I wish I could too…
