Inkspirational has a CAS challenge with a twist of using a balloon, and AAA is an anything goes with a twist of adding spring colours. Fortunately it wasn’t hard to make a card that fits both these challenges.
My stitched background is a die cut using an unbranded set and the little chicks are new dies just received from Kokorosa. The sentiment is also from Kokorosa but from a stamp and die set. I like these fonts and sentiments. My balloon is from a Spellbinders set that I’ve had for a long time. Once I had die cut the chicks from white CS I used Inktense pencils to colour them. I placed them on the rectangle and once satisfied with the look I adhered them. I added the balloon separately.
This was an easy card to make and quite fast too. Thanks for stopping by. I do hope you are beginning to see signs of spring. We’ve had some lovely sunshine and warm temperatures and a lot of my spring flowers are now out. Makes the garden look so pretty.

Thanks Lynda. I do a better colouring job with pencils than I do with markers.

Your card for both the Inkspirational and AAA challenges is delightful! The stitched background adds a lovely texture, and those little chicks from Kokorosa are adorable. The combination of the Spellbinders balloon and the vibrant colors of spring creates such a cheerful and uplifting design. Great job!
