Summer Balloons

Finally I got time to colour one of the cutest LOTV new girls and it had to be this little darling. Of course the camera is playing tricks and it looks like I haven't coloured her hair properly but it real life its fine.  The papers are Springtime from Echo Park but I think they look more summer especially has she just been to a summer fete where she got her balloons from. OK you might think I've gone a bit mad but I want to enter the card in the Papertake Weekly for here comes summer.
I've also used the sketch from Sunday Sketch and stamp. All my favourite punches have been used to make the card, the deep edge doily punch, the retro flowers and not forget a touch of ribbon.
It's been a bit of struggle the last week but I'm looking forward to a quiet weekend.

You've done her proud Debby.. And yes, she does look like she's just been to a summer fair! Your card is fantastic as always! I still haven't quite got the knack of this embossing.... often get creases! Any suggestions?
