Karen is hosting this month and she chose....
and used my Zigs and a waterbrush to color them up.
I put them on a background of Gelato Splash and
inked up a splatter stamp with the same Gelatos to let the splatters
spread to the card base.
The strings are from the ends of the sentiments from
Handwritten Border stamps.
You can't see it in the picture, but the balloons are
shined up with some Nuvo glaze and shaped.
Our talented friend, Bobby is joining us as
Guest Designer this month. Be sure to check out her

Then I hope you'll join us at

Sweet! Love your brightly watercoloured balloons Bonnie. Love the splash with gelatos. xx
ReplyDeletewhat child doesn't like balloons :) great card Bonnie.
ReplyDeleteA perfick birthday card for a child, Bon-Bon! You and Lolly both did colorful splatters on your backgrounds and that adds so much to a child's card while still keeping everything CASlicious! Making a mental note ... if only it doesn't slide down the back of my head and into my underwear like so many of my thoughts are doing these days, lol! See you soon!! Hugs, Dolly

Clever you to use sentiment squiggles for the balloon strings! This makes a fun card for a child's birthday. Love the multi-colored splatters and curvy sentiment.
