Cute balloons, Shelly, and I always love a bit of splatters! Pretty bokeh, which seem to be floating upwards like the balloons~

Love the look of the Bokeh with your fun inlaid balloons. The splatters add the perfect touch!

I struggle with bokeh...maybe I need to learn from you and not cover the whole background. Super!

Soft and pretty, Shelly! I like your swash of bokeh combined with the balloons and splatters. Wonderful!

Awesome card Shelly. Great use of monochrome blues for the bokeh circles rather than the traditional opaque white!
