Anything that Flies CBGM

Gill's challenge this week is to produce a card  basing it on "anything that flies" so that can be birds or beasties, air transport methods, myth & magic or anything that can fly.
I chose a backing paper and image from TLC where Paulette gives away amazing free digis, sentiments and papers nearly every day, so check her out:)


I matted the backing paper onto a ribbed pearlised card and mounted onto white card which I distressed with Antique Linen.
I mounted the topper on the same card and distressed the edges with ink and used a pen to create a faux line of stitching with 4 small brads in the corners. I added 3 square brads in opposite corners on the backing paper and the sentiment was produced on my xyron printer.
Good luck with the challenge
