We're having a bit of a relaxing weekend this week. We had our normal 3-day weekend to celebrate Labor Day but then got an additional day off from school for a teacher workday. Gotta admit that when you have that many relaxing days, you lose track of what day it is!! Today's Wednesday, right?!
My FAVORITE event of the weekend is the balloon glow at night. It is gorgeous! This is a picture from last year because we had planned to go Sunday but it was cancelled because of all the rain we had this weekend. Booo!
But the point of this post is to talk about the challenge over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday. This week our sponsor is Broken Box Designs, a fun, imaginative and unique clip-art shop featuring hand-drawn illustrations and digital stamps by Wendy Sefcik.
The prize up for grabs is a $5 gift certificate to be spent in
the Broken Box Design etsy shop.We hope that you will get sketchy with us. Don't forget to comment after you upload your card so you are eligible to win the prize.

Joanna, I love your Christmas card and love the hot air balloon photos. The image is very cute and love this new sketch. Going to have to give it a try. Beautiful card!!
ReplyDeleteHow fun to have the balloon festival there. I love watching them. When we go to Phoenix in the summer, we can watch the balloons right before we get into town. There is a big open area where they fly them. It is always fun to see them. I love your Christmas card and really love the border trim you have used. So cute. Your image is adorable.
ReplyDeleteYour Labor Day celebrations look and sound amazing.
ReplyDeleteI love the papers you used on your card.
Hope you have a great week.

ReplyDeleteA fun Holiday card and I like the border you used to separate the two DP's too! She looks like she is just glowing with the hint of yellow behind her ~ I like it!

Hi Joanna I love your darling Christmas card, it's such a cute image that's the one I used last time for Broken Box designs. Great colours and lovely design papers, very cute. Love your photo's of the balloon festival those amazing wonderful bright colours in the sky, where my boys go to school there are always balloons out in the sky, it's something to do with the early morning breeze. I said to the boys once don't you get excited when you see the balloons, NO you just get use to them. I love looking at them and I do get excited even at my old age. Take care and have a lovely week.
