You should have arrived here from the talented Ileana's blog. If you are just starting, you can find a full list of all the hop stops at the bottom of this post.
For this card I got to use the very cool vintage image called, "Grammas or Bust Balloon". Paulette is generously offering it up as a freebie to everyone who participates in the hop; so, be sure to head on over to her BLOG and leave her some love!
To save the image, left click to bring it up in the lightbox in its full size and then right click and scroll down to 'save image as'.
Here is the card I created. I've gone rather non-traditional with my colour scheme, opting for an antiqued black and white combo. Check it out...
