It's time for a new challenge at Festive Friday where every challenge is an inspiration list based on a selected holiday/festivity from the traditional to the unusual. Challenge projects must include at least three items from the festivity inspiration list.
Today's festivities are in celebration of Balloons Around the World Day, which takes place October 6th.
The challenge runs from September 17th - September 27th.
I like to create a card for our challenge that goes with the celebration theme. To create my card, I pulled out my Heart Balloons die from Poppy Stamps. I had a wonderful scrap in reds from an Alcohol Ink panel that I made a while ago, so I used that for my balloons. My purple cloudy sky was made with the Cloud Edger stencil from A Colorful Life Designs. The scalloped panel is from Lawn Fawn. I used balloons, red, purple and clouds from the inspo list.
Come play with us! Remember that your project does not have to go with the challenge theme. You can just use 3 or more items from the inspo list for your creation!
For more inspiration, be sure to visit the rest of the Festive Friday Challenge Design team.

Love the stenciled background of clouds! Fantastic job blending. The heart balloons add the perfect pop of color.
Those darling red balloons pop so beautifully on your fantastic background!
Love your soft subtle clouds against the bright red balloon! Thanks so much for playing along with us at the Seize the Birthday challenge!
Wonderful stenciled background, and what a great balloon die to use with the red, I love it when you find the perfect use for a "scrap!"
Stephanie, hands down you make the BEST CLOUDS EVER!!! I love this card...and those adorable heart balloons!
These clouds look super cool! and then the red balloons really pop as well. Such an eye-catching card! Thanks for joining us at Seize the Birthday, we appreciate it!
Stephanie those balloons are amazing and I love those clouds - so stormy and atmospheric. A great card! Thanks for the warm FF welcome too!
Stephanie, awesome job on those clouds - that's some masterful blending! I love those gorgeous balloons, too. The mix of polka dot, stripes, the positive and negative balloons is just fabulous The frame works so well to ground everything and the bold sentiment brings it all together beautifully.
