the sky's the limit ...

Yesterday I had some time in the afternoon to play with some new rubbah.  I found a new favorite ... Up, Up & Away.  I knew this set looked fun in the catalog, but it is so cool to work with.  I am really pleased with the way this card turned out.   


Stamps:  Up, Up & Away
Paper:  Crumb Cake, Basic Gray,  Poppy Parade, Baja Breeze
DSP:  Basic Gray
Ink:  Poppy Parade, Baja Breeze, Basic Gray
Accessories:  Nestabilities oval dies, ribbon (non SU), designer button, brads (non SU), Cuttlebug square die, dimensionals
All products are SU unless otherwise noted.

This card is for two challenges ...


and 



I always enjoy participating in The Paper Players challenges.  This was my first time to do a challenge at Card Patterns.  I actually found their site from fellow stamper, Lesley at Always Playing with Paper.  I will definitely be back to do more of their sketches. 

Have a great day,
Pam~

Hi Pam!! This is super cute!!! I love the non-traditional card size and the set you used. I've been quite intrigued by "Up, Up and Away" but haven't gone as far as putting it on my wish list yet. I especially love your cloud background - you rocked it!
