adventures with rainbows

 I've been keeping up with #The100DayProject this year, today is day 47.  Some days I have to CASE cards because I don't have an idea and some days ideas pop into my head from the challenge blogs I read.  This card was inspired by Shopping Our Stash #441 The Rainbow Connection (yes, that brings to mind a sweet little green frog!):

stamp set - Ornate Thanks; ink - Memento Tuxedo Black, Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Garden Green, Pacific Point, Gorgeous Grape; card stock - Basic White, Basic Black, Gorgeous Grape

While I was putting it together yesterday, I caught sight of the Soar Confidently stamp set and decided there just had to be a rainbow balloon, too.  Today the perfect sketch was posted at Seize the Birthday:
stamp sets - A Wish for Everything, Sending Sunshine, Soar Confidently; ink - Memento Tuxedo Black, Whisper White Craft, Pacific Point; Stampin' Blends - Poppy Parade light, Daffodil Delight dark, Granny Apple Green dark, Night Of Navy light, Blackberry Bliss light, Balmy Blue light; card stock - Balmy Blue, Daffodil Delight, Pacific Point; Stampin' Cut dies - Well Written

Years ago my parents and some friends owned a hot air balloon, and we traveled around a bit to balloon festivals.  The rainbow balloons were always a favorite of mine.
