Flowers in a Jar and Birthday Balloons

I'm back participating in another CAS(E) this Sketch Challenge.
This week's sketch is below. 

And here are my interpretations of this week's sketch.

I created this first card using a Dear Lizzie jar stamp, a random flower stamp, and a sentiment from a Hero Arts sentiment set. I added some buttons to the centers of the flowers. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

I felt inspired by the sketch to make a second card and this is that card. I used some balloons from a Hero Arts birthday set. The balloons are actually attached to animals so I stamped them in different colors of ink matching the confetti in the background paper and then fussy cut all the balloons. I arranged them then drew black lines for the balloon strings with a black gel pen. I added a little orange pre-made bow and the Happy Birthday sentiment which is from the same Hero Arts birthday set.
