Hello Helen, thanks a lot for this project! It was just what I needed to make my poster possible. I had an assignment to pick a song and create a poster and I've chosen one called Hot Ride. I didn't have a clue how to draw a balloon but your instructions were very easy to follow. My first trial was this:

After managing a bit I was able to get my work going and the final poster came as this:

Again, thanks for the class, I probably would have had to choose another song if I coudn't draw this. It was a lot of fun after all! ;]
