I have a quick post for a card I made for three challenges: ColourQ #160, Retrosketches #35, and CAS-ual Fridays #76. When I first saw the Retrosketches sketch, I immediately thought of the balloon dies that I just got from Lil Inkers. I'm not sure that this card came out exactly as I planned, and I did smudge a bit of the ink, but my daughter thought it was cute, so I am posting it.
I would also like to thank the kind folks at ColourQ, who selected this card of mine last week as a Courtier.
I am thinking of all my friends who are in the path of the hurricane, and hope that you can stay safe and dry.
Supplies Used:
Stamps: Hero Arts Birthday Messages, PTI Heart 2 Heart
Paper: PTI: Kraft, Orange Zest, Limeade Ice, Plum Pudding
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Other: Lil Inkers Balloon Dies, PTI Double Ended Banner Die
