Paper Pieced Balloons

Happy Monday! It was rainy here today but could have been much worse. It could have been colder and then it would have been ice or snow. The prediction for tomorrow is strong storms as our temperature is supposed to be in the 60s. Is this still January? Hard to believe. But I was thinking spring and summer this evening. I made  afew thank you notes, CAS style with washi tape and paper piecing.

I just used several pieces of washi tape as my background in varying lengths and widths. I cut out a hot air balloon from the Gina K Eclectic Summer set and paper pieced them with scraps from my scrap box. I added a thank you sentiment from Gina K Arranged with Love set. Easy peasy!








I am entering these challenges:
Thanks for stopping by today! Hope you have a wonderful Tuesday. Me? I am headed for the dentist and two doctor's tomorrow. Yuck!

Those are really cool....I have yet to work with the tape but it sure is fun to see what you and others do with it. I just picked up a freebie hot air balloon. You have inspired me to "getting going" and do something with it. I love your color choices and the feeling for Spring you brought to us.
