Plane Fun!

Ok, I might be a whole week late on getting this posted...it was for last weeks Lizzie Anne Sketch Challenge, but better late than never right?! I think this little plane and "plane" fun sentiment are so fun! These stamps are from the 'Things that Go' stamp set. Fun, Fun, Fun.
I think this is a great layout-very versatile indeed! I like to take part in Kristina Werner's 'A Year in Cards' over at 2peas. I love the way she inspired me to staple my ribbon! I'm not normally a ribbon stapler...or stapler on cards for that matter-but it's fun to try something new! I think that class is super fun, check it out if you haven't!

Onto the card at hand! I started with a saffron card--such a delicious color! I used some scalloped scissors to make the choclate chip scallop border and then attached it to my card. This designer paper is American Crafts-isn't it fun!? I attached my designer paper, then started my ribbon fun! The ribbon is part of SU! sale-a-bration ribbon bundle. It is a wonderful 5/8" saffron grosgrain...LOVE it! After I finished my ribbon (Kristina shows you just how to do your ribbon like this in her class), I attached a sliver of bashful blue cardstock to the top of the AC paper. I stamped my plane image with palette brown ink-and colored it in with a saffron SU marker. I made the window chocolate chip with my SU marker too. I used my wide oval punch to punch the plane out and then layered it with a scallop made with my nestabilities/big shot/chocolate chip paper. I stamped the cute sentiment in palette ink as well, and then glitifed my plane. 2 way glue and dazzling diamonds make glitter super quick! So, there you have it friends!

We're starting the real process of moving...selling stuff we can't/don't need to take home...and will have the shipment that will go by air packed this Friday!! I can't believe it! I'm hoping to stop by daily...it makes me feel somewhat "normal" to keep sharing!! Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a great one!:)
