Confession…

With Halloween and all the craziness that went on at my house this weekend, I totally forgot to get a balloon photo. So I cheated!! hee hee.

Here is my original photo.

I found the perfect balloon shot in the Flickr Creative Commons by josephpetepickle

How’s that for fun? I love Photoshop! No cheating for you though. Good luck!

    Love your mad Photoshop skills. I was just thinking when I first saw the picture “Man, she had that set up so perfectly and timed just right and had a kiddo that cooperated to boot”. :)
