OWH Sketch Challenge #65

I turned this sketch on it's side to make an vertical card. I had purchased the stamp quite awhile back and had not ever used it. However, I found the matching paper at Michael's last Friday evening and was inspired to dig it out. I love the paper airplane paper; such fresh colors and whimsical. I also stamped the ribbon with matching ink. It originally was white cotton twill. I tied a "cheater" bow and stamped the cheater piece on both sides to make it easier to tie. With this ribbon you could stamp almost anything on it or mist spray (something I have yet to try). I have been trying to steer myself towards card themes for men or kids.

  1. Very whimsical interpretation of this week's sketch. I have a vertical version in mind as well and may be posting a 2nd card. I like that you stamped the twill to match!
