  17. Your Balloon cards are very UPLIFTING!!! LOL - Love the both of them - I had already seen the second one, but this first one with the streamers and the smiley face really won my heart - I think it must be the blue and that great die behind it! The black polka dotted DP really makes it stand out. I know if I ever got the chance to go up in a hot air balloon - I would want that party atmosphere that the streamers give!!
