Flyin' High...Again.

As I was putting together the other Flyin' High card (7/27/09 Post), I remembered the trick I learned on how to make a sky with a cloud template. And here is the card:
Card Size: 4.25" x 5.5"
I drew my own banner template. I stamped the sentiment on it, then clear embossed it. The plane and banner are attached with 3D Foam Squares. The 'tow rope' is CTMH Black Hemp.
Recipe: CTMH CS-White Daisy, Moonstruck & Indian Corn Blue, CTMH Ink-Black, Grey Flannel, Moonstruck & Tulip, CTMH SS-Flyin' High & Little Boys, Black Eyelet, Clear Embossing Powder, CTMH Black Hemp, Silver Brads, 3D Foam Squares
I put together a little tutorial on how to make a sky with clouds.
STEP 1
Cut cloud shapes out of scrap CS.
STEP 2
Put your template across the paper you plan to use. Take a sponge and tap it on your ink pad to load it with ink. Now tap the sponge along the the top of the cloud stencil. Keep loading your sponge with ink and applying it to your paper until you're happy with the amount on your paper.
STEP 3
Here's what your paper should look like after you've removed the cloud stencil.
Step 4
Reposition your cloud stencil and repeat STEP 2 until you have covered your whole page.
Here's what your paper will look like:
Wasn't that fun!
Enjoy,
Deneen
