Hambo Hoedown - Balloon Girl

Here is my submission for the weekly Hambo Hoedown Challenge.  This week's challenge was to use bright and bold colors AND paper piecing.  I have never paper pieced before, so I was a little nervous, but I think it turned out okay.  I used Bo Bunny papers and embellishments - my favorite!  I love challenges that stretch me to try things I've never done before.
