Enjoy The Journey

I have a card to share with you that I made for some dear friends of ours that will be heading to Germany at the end of the month for three years. We will miss them a lot but are so excited for them at the same time.

 

Here is the card:

I used the sketch from Mojo Monday:

I made a few changes to the sketch. I used only two brads instead of three because I only had one red and one blue and I used the arrow for the banner and the last difference was I didn't use diagonal strips. Instead I stamped it along the bottom edge.  

 

I did a bit of distressing and inking of the edges to give the card a vintage feel.



I love the sweet little airplane that was punched out of silver metallic paper for the final embellishment. The arrow is stamped on pattern paper then I cut it out.

 

 I don't know about you but I find myself buying stamps now that have matching dies so I don't have to do any fussy cutting. It sure saves a lot of time.

 

Thanks for taking a peek. Hope your having a grand weekend!
