Birthday Party Scene Card with Pennants and Balloons

A couple of days ago I shared how I won a spot in the 2011 Summer Online Card Class being held by Jennifer McGuire and Kristina Werner.  This morning I received my first pdf file with the color combination for the week AND two superb sample cards by the card mavens themselves!  Here is the card I made this morning with the color combination and I'm just in LOVE with this combo!
I had so much fun putting together the little party pennants - here is a close up of the pennants and balloons.



Materials Used (all CTMH unless otherwise noted):
Paper:  Sky CS, Gypsy CS, Susnet CS, White Daisy CS
Stamps:  Over the Rainbow (cloud), Birthday Bash (retired, balloons), American Celebration (July SOTM, Celebrate tag), Fanfare WOTG stamp (Its Party Time tag), Party Pennants (pennants)
Inks:  Sunset, Cotton Candy, Gypsy, Versamark
Other:  White Daisy Embossing Powder, Hollyhock brads, Twine, Pink Ribbon (Michaels)

Thanks for stoppy by!  I hope you'll find some inspiration from the class materials I'm allowed to share and if so, please leave a comment so I can check it out!

Hugs,

Paige

    Your card really caught my eye right away - it's such a nice card and I love everything about it! Seems as if our style is pretty much the same and it's gonna be wonderful to follow your work during this class as your fellow class mate!
