You Did It!!

I have a quick card to share with you.  The idea suddenly came to me lying in bed and I couldn't wait to give it a try!  (I have to make this post quick because I am headed back to church in an hour to work with the high school youth on a skits for their Carnival of Comedy coming up in a few weeks.  FUN!!)


I thought it would be fun to try stamping the sentiments on the clouds!  What a fun way to celebrate an achievement!


On this photo you can see how I staggered the clouds at both the top and bottom and popped the middle cloud out higher above the other two. I also cut two rows of scallops and popped them up as well, each at a different height to make it seem more like the airplane is flying high above the clouds...just like someone who is celebrating something would be!


I'm going to enter this in the Make-it-Monday Go-to Sentiment Challenge on PTI that ends today as well!

Thanks for stopping by!  I hope you enjoyed the card!

Supplies (all PTI unless noted)
Stamps: A Little Argyle, Fly Away, Scattered Showers, Enjoy the Ride, Misc PTI Sentiments
Paper: Spring Rain, White
Ink: Raspberry Fizz, Aqua Mist, Palette Charcoal
Other: Cloud Dies, Quickutz Scallops, Ribbon, Pop Dots, Rhinestone

Jen, the scallops as the bottom clouds is a great idea! And so is stamping the sentiments on the clouds--believe it or not, I had the same idea as I was thinking about stamping while trying to fall asleep last night! GMTA!
