Hello everyone...Cathy here with this week's Ways to Use It Challenge.
Since my birthday is in the month of September, we are going to celebrate with balloons. Your challenge is to use at least one balloon on your card...and for extra bonus points, make your card a birthday card!
Let's celebrate big time and fill the gallery with balloons!
Check out the thumbnails below for some inspiration...a big thank you to Lisa, Sabrina and Jayne for your balloon samples!
Here is my card Cathy. Happy day and week..and happy birthday month. Whoohoo

thank you Cathy for the versatile challenge! I combined this with the current week's sketch challenge- I fussy cut a frog, using kids' watercolors for a diluted watercolor effect. Repurposed a dry embossed background, highlighting the dots with watercolor pencils. Added 3 strips and a central panel per the sketch challenge, changing the dimensions a bit to suit my frog. Finished with a simple sentiment panel and 2 small balloons with yarn for their strings- for today's challenge. Here's love you lots

Thank you for the challenge. I haven't used my balloon die for several years, so this was just the right time. We don't have much occasion for parties these days being only the two of us, so it was nice to make something different - WT861 - Just for you.
