This week's sketch challenge seemed perfect to use some of the panels I created playing with oxide inks and photo paper following Lydia's tutorial: This was fun, I recommend trying it. You just put distress oxide ink colors on your craft sheet, spritz with water, and pick up the color with your photo paper. When dry, position the stencil on top and wipe with your baby wipe.
This card will be going to this week's teapot challenge as well and I added a couple of balloons to the front for the birthday celebration.
Thanks for looking!

Beautiful! You did well to have the right photo paper, it took me a lot of trial and error last year to find one which would work. Lovely background and fun balloons.

That background is fabulous! Anything with greens and purples together makes me smile. Wonderful card!

Another terrific card for a very worthy cause. Super colors on this card and love the popped up purple balloons. Thank you for making a few cards for the challenge this week. I am sure they will find a great home.
