Wow, I can't believe I managed to create a single layer card, and it wasn't even part of a challenge. The challenge I did meet is from this week's Friday Mashup! This is a blog I've just recently discovered and decided to try the challenge.... to create a card for kids, or use the color combination of Pacific Point, Tempting Turquoise, Daffodil Delight and Real Red....OR Mash those two challenges together in one card.
As soon as I placed the scraps of color on my desk I saw balloons, and pulled out this stamp because I just love the long swirling strings!
I stamped the balloon image on watercolor paper to colour in the balloons - and for a final Mash-Up - used all four colours on one balloon - of course they bled a bit and created a green in there, but I guess that's what happens sometimes when you mash things together.
I can't believe the weekend is here! I hope I can get some cleaning done and some stuff set aside for the community wide garage sale.
Have a terrific Weekend - Thanks for stopping by!

How fun! Love the bright balloons. What a great design! Thanks so much for playing with us at the Friday Mashup!!
The colors definitely work together and scream PARTY!!
This card is fantastic, Joan! I love the 'busyness' of the balloon strings, against the clean, one-layer, look of the card. The vibrant balloons are beautiful, and the multi-coloured one is just WOW!!!
What a wonderful card! I love those balloons and I like how you put the yellow ribbon there to make it look like the strings were all held together. Great job! Thanks so much for playing along with us at The Friday Mashup!
