I only had the melon, so guesstimated the other two colors. I went for desert - double serving - 2 greens. Cut 4 balloons and inlaid pink in both. Cut a pink mat. Ran a little grey around the clouds for more definition. Colored the floral portions of the sentiment. Assembled. This will be one of my weekly cards to my sister in a nursing home in another state.
I didn't think I'd be joining the challenge today - had a root canal this morning - turned out it was only bad in my imagination. Up since 3:36 am worrying for nothing. The only pain is to my wallet!

So pretty, Priscilla - love the simplicity of the 2 air balloons floating peacefully and that beautiful sentiment die cut! So glad your root canal went as well as it did!

this is such a cute card Priscilla-you and I are in the minority today with no florals on our cards-a root canal yikes-my hubby had a double one recently and he was in a lot of pain afterwards
