I've not had tons of time to create this week as DH is still recovering from some cellulitis, but in the early, early hours of the morning, I stole some crafty time. I've been experimenting with this design using various colors and decided that this card was 'worthy.' I actually like it quite much!
All the stamps are from one SSS set. The panel was cut with an AE die, and there's one bitty LF heart dipped in Delicata gold ink. I drew the balloons' strings. You may see other variations of this in the future. Congratulations, Melissa. What a wonderful accomplishment!

Love your CAS birthday card! Can't wait to make one. Love the simplicity & white space!
I'm quite "liking it" too! A WHOLE LOT!!!
So soft and pretty. The 'thin font' of the sentiment is perfect for the colors. Love how you placed the b-day greeting n top of the balloons.
The wee heart ROCKS!!!
Early hours are when I get most done as well, Bev! Hope DH is on the mend ! Well this is as pretty as can be! I absolutely love the simplicity of this card sweet friend!!!! Hugsxo
Fab CAS card, Bev! Love the soft colours of the balloons, those splattery shady bit things, the hands-drawn strings in the style of the sentiment, and that gorgeous little heart. Perfect!
Goodness Bev, I had another friend who's husband just recovered from cellulitis too! Glad to hear that hubby is on the mend though. I love your card a lot too! It's so simple, but so perfect! One that I will have to try and CASE one day. I hope you and hubby are staying well! Hugs, Brenda
You SHOULD like it quite much because it's so whimsical and lovely. You have such a knack for arranging bits into an artful, delicate display of art. <3 I hope your hubster's cellulitis clears up soon.
Bev so late to comment but your card is CASalicous! Those balloons with the splatter are amazing! Hope you are not running so much--happy weekend!
Super pretty card, my friend! :)
