Up, Up and Away

I've been cruising for challenges this weekend and have collected quite a list of them! For this card, I combined three challenges...the CAS-ual Friday #64: On Cloud 9...
the ColourQ Challenge #146...
and the Clean & Simple Stamping Fall-to Layout #202.
Keeping my card clean and simple is definitely a challenge for me! I managed to keep lots of white space with an embossed white background and just a hint of color with the flags and hot air balloon. After a little stamping and paper piecing of the image panel, a little stitching of the flags, and a little tying of buttons...my card was complete! Fun card to make:)
Thanks for stopping by the stage! Check back in the morning for a brand-new challenge from The Pink Elephant!

Stamps: Up, Up and Away (Verve) Ink: Black Stazon Paper: variety DSP, Whisper White CS (SU) Other: square punch, bitty buttons, Big Shot, embossing folder (SU) Pin It
