New layout: Balloons

As a Guest Designer for Stamp by Step I created another layout - this time with different theme of papers . I edited 2 pictures, turning them to black & white, leaving the balloon - the main focus of the layout - in its original color.

It's a little funny and strange changing the usual method of work. I usually pick the pictures and then match coordinating cardstocks & papers. This time I had the papers and I had to choose the pictures that coordinates and create some kind of harmony.
