this is special ..
loving how the flower is the centre of attention altho very small in the canvas .. of course its colour makes it so ..
this would look amazing printed .. its definitely eye candy for sure . :)

i'm not sure whether you could represent happiness any better ..
altho if there was a fire behind the jumping figures it wouldnt feel like happiness at all .. but with the bokeh you have totally nailed it .
love what you put in the challenges .. always so cool and imaginative .. plus you have awesome skills ..
feeling a bit jelly here . !! .. ;)

what a brilliant idea .. who would think to take soap bubbles in a hot air balloon .
although i'm not up on the usual behaviour .. it could be a thing ..
anyway .. this is a wonderful take on the challenge and congrats on the ribbon .. :)
