The MFP Speedy Fox & Friends challenge #250 is "sponged circles only." Yikes! I've never done anything with sponged circles before, and I'm not so sure I met this challenge well, but a challenge just that, so here goes :)
I sponged circles with 5 different shades of blue inks, and used an Inkadinkado stamp set for the sentiment done in Midnight Muse ink. I punched 3 balloons from assorted snippets with a MS punch, embossed each one with a different ef, and lastly added assorted blue gemstones and color-coordinated twines for the tails. I mounted the panel on a piece of midnight muse cardstock and called this one done!
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you're having a great day!

Love your sponged circles, Carol. I just looked at the tutorial for this week on SCS a bit ago and it was very much like this. Your card looks awesome. Great colors, too.
That is a fantastic background! Good luck with the challenge!
Wow, Carol, this looks amazing! Really caught my eye on my blog feed! Would love to try this! I think the embossed balloons are the perfect touch!
