Hang in There (Sketch Challenge)

I really wanted to participate in the Sketch Saturday Challenge, but the sketch was a REAL challenge.  I had this left over image from my "Doodle Pantry goodie stash", and after getting inspiration from the DT members, I gave it a go.  Boy oh boy....I'm thinking Spring...even with the snow sprinkles we had the other night. The image...Balloon Ants.

    They are bright, cheery and fun! It doesn't show like you had a real challenge with the sketch - it's great!

    A great card to cheer one up with those crazy mice and the cheery yellow and blue colours. Love the little balloon in the round circle that has the background grid papers in it. Fabulous!

    That sketch DOES look like a challenge! I'm so going to try that "filling in the balloon" technique. Congrats on the snow...it looks like summer out here :(
