CASology #259: BALLOON


Hello, friends!  It's a very special Tuesday at CASology this week!  We are celebrating the 5 Year Anniversary of CASology and we have a lot of fun in store for you!  We have former design team members joining us, and we will also be hopping along with some of the wonderful CASology challenge sponsors.  Check in at the CASology blog for the full list of blog hop participants.

You should have arrived here from Concord & 9th, one of our awesome sponsors and one of the participating companies in the hop this week.

This week our cue is a celebratory one, for sure!  Break out the balloons, there's a party going on here, people!


I made my own balloons out of a Christmas ball layering stamp (Holiday Style by Sunny Studio Stamps) and paired them with a banner from the Sunny Borders set.  A few sequins and hand-drawn strings finished it off.


I'd like to take a minute to say THANK YOU to all the companies who have sponsored our challenges and offered such generous prizes to our participants each week.  They have added to the fun of the challenge, haven't they?  Thank you, thank you to ALL of our sponsors!

Thank you also to all of the participants who have joined us at CASology over the past five years.  I am always inspired by your creative CAS designs each week!

I do hope you are able to play along with us this week as we celebrate!  What does BALLOON bring to mind for you?  Link up your card by noon on Monday (Central time) and hop along the links listed at the CASology blog for lots of inspiration and fun!  Now, off to your next stop in the blog hop, our former design team member Tracey McNeely!

Thanks for visiting,
Judy

    Great! This card looks sweet and almost retro to me with the "shine marks" on the balloons... I'm thinning of all the color combinations that could be used! Fun!

    I still love balloons and I'm a grownup! They are just so much fun! I love the colors of your balloons but it needed a yellow one which is my favorite color. Just sayin'. I guess balloons aren't just for birthday cards anymore! LOL I love your card and I love the fact that since I am on this blog hop I get to win things. Cool!

    Oh my goodness! I didn't realise that you had 'stretched' a Christmas bauble to create these awesome balloons AND hand-drew the strings!!! This looks fantastic! Oh, I miss you girls already!! This is wonderfully fun, and I must say, I just LOVE your new website. I know I've said it before, but I always leave your website feeling a little warmer. ;-)
