Welcome Stampin' Friends!
I am excited about today's card, it is a prototype that I made for a customer for whom I am making birthday invitations (for her son's birthday party). I made three and she picked the one she liked the best. This is one of the ones she did not pick, you can see the other one she did not pick HERE.
Isn't it so cute! I love it, well, I love all three of the cards, actually I think I may use the word love liberally when it comes to my creations. Because I do, just love it all!!! Anyhow. I was inspired to make this card after making this cloud and tree card.
The new Up, Up and Away stamp set (#122757) is one of my favorites from this new catalog! I am so excited to be doing this birthday party project! I can not wait to show you the card she picked for the invitation, but will not do so until after the invites have been sent and recieved, in November! Stay tuned!!!

Great card - thank you for explaining how you made the clouds - they look so good. I just love the balloons - they always look so bright and cheery. Gorgeous!
