CASology : Balloon ** 5 year anniversary blog hop **

Hi there!

We are celebrating 5 YEARS of CAS inspiration this week at CASology with a fun blog hop ...



                                                             


.. and it's balloon/s we are looking for on your cards on this special occasion!



                                                             


My card:


A closer look:


The balloon is a design by Hero Arts in the Silhouette store: Design ID #27982.

After printing & cutting it out, I colored it with my Zig markers, and added the sentiment. A very QACAS card today!

There are LOADS of prizes up for grabs from our amazing sponsors! Also joining the hop are former design team members!

For all the detail, click the link HERE !

If you started from the top, you should have arrived here from UNIKO & your next stop will be Janet.

I hope to see you play along!

Hugs
Hannelie

Wat fijn dat ik even in het Nederlands kan typen :-)
Engels is niet mijn sterkste kant.
Ik vind je kaart (zoals altijd!) erg mooi. Het ziet er eenvoudig uit, maar volgens mij was het nog best veel werk. Leuk, deze bloghop!

I'm not sure why you're not on the Silhouette DT, too, Hannelie! You always make the coolest things with yours. This is a prime example of your brilliance. The delicate shape, tucked into the square, and your coloring of the stripes is so sweet!! And the sentiment on the right side balances everything on your card. Amazing!! Love it. Bev
