Hello Friends, We have a very easy word for you this week over at Just Us Girls. The word is Balloons. I decided to get out my favorite MFT Adorable Elephants set as soon as I saw this challenge. They just make me smile! I also CASED this terrific card I found over on Pinterest! I just recently got the cloud stencil from MFT, so you will have to forgive me as I need a bit more practice with it. I am such a heavy handed inker! I also finally got the Wonky rectangles that I have wanted FOREVER and a few other goodies too! I used my faithful prisma colored pencils to color my card.
PLEASE consider joining us at JUGS this week where we have a new guest joining us! Welcome Stef Perry! We are really happy to have you Stef!
Take care, Nanc’

How adorable is your ellie, being swept away by the pretty balloons to deliver his birthday message! So incredibly sweet! Your clouds are marvelous; I think your inking is perfect! Way to go in finally receiving and showcasing your new Wonky rectangles; they add a bit of whimsy that’s truly delightful!

How stinkin’ cute! This little guy just makes me smile, and I love that you made him blue. Who says elephants have to be gray – I have even seen the odd pink one every now and then (ha ha ha!!!!!!!) I love your design here, especially the cute way the little guy is holding the balloons. GENIUS!!!
