The main image and one cloud are stamped on a piece of Whisper White. The second cloud and birthday banner were stamped on another piece of Whisper White and fussy-cut before adding them, mounted on Dimentionals, to the main piece. All the colouring is done with my Blendabilities except for the lady's earrings which are coloured with my Gold Dazzle Stampin' Marker. I added a piece of Cherry Cobbler Baker's Twine to the banner and made it look as if it had just slipped out of her hand.
I love the looks of joy on the faces of the images. That's what makes the entire card such a happy one for me. This is also a card that I'd happily give to my husband and so I decided it would be a good one to enter into the Paper Players Challenge which is for masculine cards. It doesn't only have to be about animals, woods, tools or travel to appeal to a man.
Everything used for this card is currently a Stampin' Up! product except for the stamp set.

ReplyDeleteThanks, Cornelia. I smiled the entire time I was colouring it. Those two characters are just so sweet!
DeleteWhat super cute card, Heidi. And your coloring is great! Thanks for joining us at The Paper Players.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Yapha. It's a great stamp for the Blendabilities. I love your challenges.
DeleteHow funny is that! I love it and agree - it doesn't have to be tools and animals to appeal to a guy. So glad you joined us at the Paper Players this week

DeleteWhat a fun card! Beautifully coloured and works really well as a male card and so not all browns and greys! Thanks for joining us at The Paper Players this week!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Joanne. Your comments are really appreciated.
Delete:Love this fun and unusual card - the twine on the banner is perfect!
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining us at Inkspirational Challenges. Come back next time! Marina
Thank you very much, Marina. It needed the twine. That really finished it off for me. I loved the challenge---flight has so many possible interpretations.
