Miss You!!

Hello there friends! I hope you are well! I'm doing well, and was happy to get a bit of "quiet"  
(ha ha ha) time tonight. It is true, that creating is a type of stress relief for me. Let's just say I really needed it today! I am still not back to creating almost daily, so I am so thankful for all the fun challenge sites that help me find my groove...and I am so glad to have so many to choose from!

I was happy to see the color splash challenge over at the Playdate Cafe! Black, white and a splash of lime! Oh, be still my heart! I was thinking it had been a while since my hot air balloons had seen ink, so here is my color splash card!
I used my Up, Up, and Away stamps, and the sentiment is from one of my Mat Stack stamp sets. I used Mat stack 3 dies, Up, Up, and away dies, and my large border scallop, all from PTI. My clouds --which slightly blend in on the card-are embossed with the swiss dots embossing folder. I wrapped it all up in a bit of black and white twine...and there you have it!

Thanks a bunch for stopping by! Take care and I'll be back tomorrow! I've got some fun planned for the days a head, new stamp release from GRS this weekend...yea!!
