Laugh a Little

Hi Everyone!

I hope your are enjoying your weekend. I made this card on Friday; but just haven't had a chance to post it until now. This is my card for this week's Viva La Verve Sketch Challenge. I embossed the polka dot background on the Simply Chartreuse background with Versa Mark and clear embossing powder. The striped patterned paper is from Simple Stories "Happy Day"  6x6 paper pad.  The balloon is from Verve's Up Up and Away. I stamped it with Memento Rich Cocoa ink and then used Copic Markers to color it in. I added the bits of bling to balloon for a little sparkle. The sentiment is from Hero Arts "Live Life" set and is stamped with Ruby Red ink onto Verve's "Graph Paper" Plain Jane that I stamped with Old Olive ink and cut out.
Enjoy the rest of your Sunday and I will see you all tomorrow!!
