Balloons in the Sky

How is your weekend? I spent a bit of time in my crafty area, and created this card for fun, using MFT's Sketch Challenge #304. I flipped the sketch upside down. I started by using Clarity Brushes with the Big Balloons Stencil, and distress ink in shades of red, yellow and green. I then used the stencil and traced the balloons with a fine black pen and added strings. After inking the panel edges with blue, I adhered the panel to a white card base that was edged with a black and white polka strip of washi tape. I added a sentiment from Adorable Elephants on a banner and backed it with another banner covered with black and white striped washi.
