Balloons? Check!

Can you believe it- I am playing with the Cinema Challenge, two weeks in a row, ON TIME! Whoo!

This time the selected flick was "Up!". And they wanted balloons. We went as a family to see that in theaters and then my kids watched it daily after getting it for Christmas for a long time. It just happens that my little girl's birthday is this week, so I had already made the invite (below) and needed to make her a card still! Score!

I picked this particular balloon set because this is the set she ALWAYS chooses when she needs to make a card. I thought I'd paper-piece the monkey, and then used the In Colors for the bright balloons! Super simple, just really time consuming! Supplies:

Stamps: Sock Monkey Ink: Basic Black, Soft Suede Paper: Melon Mambo, Whisper White, Bermuda Bay, Rich Razzleberry, Dusty Durango, Crushed Curry, Suede Prints DP

And here is her birthday party invitation! The set is long-retired but I like it for kid things. I let her pick which child image, and then which birthday 'accessories' to use. When I had them all stamped in black she saw and made a comment about how she hoped they would be colorful...! Made me laugh.
