Up, up and away!!

                                     Hi everyone just a quick post for this weeks LIM challenge:

For our theme this week we have chosen
Up in the air
For this we would love to see aircraft, rockets, balloons etc, although if you have none of this sort of image then we would like to see how inventive you can be with the theme.

                                                                  Come and see my card:



 I used a stamp from Stamp Addict vintage set which has images from Leonardo Da Vinci and I made a masterboard. I stamped using black memento and coloured with SU Crumb Cake and Marina Mist. I cut up the board into squares and mounted them onto my card and scored around them for definition. The top square is double embossed and popped up on foam pads. The sentiment is a freebie from Craft Stamper and I cut it into a flag shape and added a dotted trail with a pen.
Thanks for taking the time to visit it's always appreciated.

    Love your unique take on the challenge,Val. Cutting and layering your Da Vinci images looks fab. Love the colours and triple embossing, which gives a lovely effect x

    Very cas + very vintage. A combo I've never seen before but one you've mastered. A really beautiful piece of art!

    How clever ! Love your interpretation of the theme and the use of the Da Vinci stamps was a touch of genius.
