Birthday Balloons and Unicorn...TIME OUT Challenges #105~4th Birthday Celebration, Where Creativity Meets C9

Hello,

Hope you're having a wonderful week!  Running errands today; first one on the list is sharing a couple of cards made for TIME OUT Challenges #105~4th Birthday Celebration.  Four years old! WOW! Wishing the Challenge and the incredible DT a most marvelous birthday...with many, many, many more to come!


Since their wonderful sponsor is Concord and 9th, I'm also pairing my cards with the Where Creativity Meets C9 Challenge #18~Sketch.

 

My cards use a mix-and-match from two different sets: Unicorn Awesomeness and Happy Balloons.  The first sees the absolutely lovely, proud unicorn set atop a rainbow backdrop created with one of the stamps from the balloons set.  Hard to see, but the unicorn's horn is glittery gold glamorous.


The second card features hot air balloon, floating through fluffy, delicate clouds, which were made by transforming the cloud die from the Unicorn set into a stencil.  A bit of rainbow appearing in this one, too....

That's it from me...off to tackle the rest of my list...

Thank you for dropping by!

Oh Carol, these cards really helped brighten my day! Such wonderful, colourful cards. The Unicorn looks so proud and with that super colouring...why not! Adding the dimension here, added to this!
And wow to that masking of the clouds, really makes me feel the balloon is floating. A joy to see you at Time Out and thank you for all your support over the last 4 years x

Oh, Carol, these are both fantastic!! Unicorn perfection on the first (love the rainbow stripes), and I adore the unexpected slight rainbow treatment of the clouds in the second. What a treat to have you join us with these two beauties for our Where Creativity Meets C9 sketch challenge!

Magical, Carol ... both of them! That golden horned unicorn with the wonderfully coloured mane and tail is fabulous against the rainbow arrow stripes ... and what a gorgeous sky to drift through in that sweet, whimsical hot air balloon! Thanks so much for your sweet wishes for our 4th birthday celebrations ... and for playing along with us at Time Out! Hugs, Anita :)

Delightful cards, Carol. The unicorn is magical atop the rainbow colored image. So proud and regal. I adore your rainbow in the clouds and the lovely balloon. These cards make me smile. Hope you got all your errands done! :) Hugs!

Both your cards are just fabulous, but you've stolen the show with that second one. Love the clouds! Thanks for playing along at Where Creativity Meets C9 Challenge!

It's rainbow girl! The unicorn is so stately, Carol, but still has a whimsical element with the rainbow background and colorful tail and mane. Making the clouds in rainbow colors was genius and and a perfect backdrop for the hot air balloon.
