Keith's Card


What should of been an easy quiet week is looking like anything but, so no time for WOYWW but will post a card now that the receiver should of returned from their holiday and opened this by now.
I really wished I had used green instead of that blue strip in the balloon, writing this post its really bugging me.
Once again I've used Francoise Ready Hot Air Balloon set from Woodware and paper pieced the balloon with stamping up papers. The word paper is from Stamping up too, it likes being distressed even if I don't.
Ok I need to post this that blue strip is really really annoying me and worst is I can't do anything about it.

I like the card and the paper that you used. I think it looks good with the blue strip in the balloon , because the stripes are horizontale.

You're too critical of your work Debby. I'd be over the moon if I could turn out work as gorgeous as this card - blue strip or not. I'm sure it's only you that it's bugging. It looks fine to me.

Fabulous card anyway Debby! Took me awhile to figure out you weren't talking about the big blue strip running horizontal... had to read it twice! ugh! We really are our own worst critics! I'm the same way. I love it!
