Balloons

Hello, morning everyone, how was your weekend? Mine was so awesome! On Saturday went to the Malta Fashion Awards with my friend and her mates AND THEN .... woot woot ........ had the most fabulous time when we went off partying to a disco till the early hours of the morning!!!!! Yippeee I loved it, such a long time since I went dancing. Hubby DOESN'T like dancing and so I just have to don't go and I miss it so much. Needless to say, I was really tired the next day that I slept in .. guess my age is getting to me ha ha...

But onto my card now, it's time for another StampFairy Challenge today and this time we want to see BALLOONS .. one two or more ... somewhere on your project. For my card I used the cute Donny teddy bear dressed up as a ladybird and coloured him with my promarkers.
The 'Happy Happy' tag and sentiment are from a Hero Arts stamp set, leaf punch MS and card candy in the corners which I coloured black with my promarkers.

Hope you will come to play along with us this week, BUT remember you have to use Stamp Fairy stamps for your chance to win. Don't have any? Then why don't you check out the freebies, I'm sure you will find something you like, there are more here, here and here but more others as well.

I am entering my card in these challenges today.
- Papertake Weekly- BLOOM and GROW
- CES Challenge 37 - EMBELLISH IT
- Stamptacular 12- BEARnecessities

These are now a preview of new releases.
   

That is all for today, wanted to tell you that I didn't forget my birthday candy. For what I have in mind I have to go to Valletta, as there is a shop that sells Pergamano Clear Stamp Sets. I thought I might get one of those and add some more stuff, but still didn't manage to make it unfortunately.... .... really hoping to make it this week.

Thank you for looking
Big hugs

    This is just gorgeous Dora. I love the bright red, the flowers are beautiful, gorgeous image and thanks fir the links, I got the pussy cat and the dreaded balloons.

    I say dreaded as I have the most terrible fear of them. I will cross the street if I see a child holding a balloon, and never walk into a promotion shop with balloons at the door,my kids went without balloons for years...awww poor things...I'm much better now, and will get a bit closer but never blow one up or touch one..lol

    Silly old lady...
    Luv CHRISSYxx

    Hi Dora

    So pleased you had a good weekend .. .. you party animal you!!! LOL!!!

    My hubby doesn't do the dancing things either. The best I get is the last smooch of the evening.

    Of course that is because everyone in the whole room would be watching him if he should decide to dance and he wouldn't like that LOL!!

    Loving your card. Gorgeous images and great layout and embellishments.

    Must go and see what I can do for this week. I am a little hooked on these sweet characters.

    Love Jules xx
