Up In the Air

Happy Wednesday!!  It's time for another challenge from The House That Stamps Built.  This week it is a Designer's Choice Challenge and Shirley has chosen: It's Up In the Air.  So anything that is up in the air: planes, kites, birds, butterflies, etc.  Here is the card I created:
I started out with the background and since the metro stamp isn't large enough to cover the whole panel, I stamped it sort of randomly all over and really, you don't even really notice.  I stamped the plane image and then added the gray clouds.  It's quite hard to tell in this photo, but I embossed the black panel with a diagonal stripe embossing folder.  The little strip of stars was in my bits and pieces stash.
I hope you will get a chance to play along with us this week; there are so many options for this challenge!  Can't wait to see what you create.  And if you need any of the stamps I used; check out the 10% off your entire order coupon over in my left sidebar.

    I figured someone would use the airplane - and love this layout - the stars are the finishing touch to this card. Love how you used the map.

    What a great masculine card! Your interpretation of the sketch is spot on. An aviator would especially love to be on the receiving end. Thank you for playing along at Try Stampin' on Tuesday and Double Trouble.

    A really great masculine card, Heather! You made excellent use of our Try Stampin' on Tuesday sketch. I like the idea of a map background for your flight themed card. The addition of those little stars from your stash really highlights the circle! Thank you for sharing your creativity with us at TSOT!!! -Donna
