Anything that Flies

By
That's the challenge Suzi has for us over on the Make My Monday blog today - she also has a fabulous PRIZE to give away to the winner of this challenge so do pop over and take a look.
Here is my card - inside and out



I chose balloons as I love it when we are out for a drive over the Malvern Hills in summer and we see balloons - we have a great view of them up there. I know they don't have wings and don't technically fly but they are up in the air and that's god enough for me (and the DT 'cos I did check with them first!).
I can't wait to see what you make of this challenge - here's what I used to make my card today

Materials - Stampin' Up
Stamps: Up, Up & Away
Ink: Tempting Turquoise. Old Olive, Real Red, Daffodil Delight, Tangerine Tango
Card Stock: Whisper White, Tangerine Tango
Paper: Sunshine and Showers DSP
Accessories: Petite Curly Label Punch, Dimensionals,Tangerine Tango Ribbon

(Please do drop me an e-mail if you would like to order any of the above items or indeed any Stampin' Up product from the two current catalogues found in my side bar - all my details are above in the top tabs - thanks).

Please don't forget to pop over to see all the other wonderful work created by the DT this week - Jacqueline xx

So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr

 I have decided to try and get on top of my Christmas cards early this year and so far it’s going well!!!
