To The Moon and Back / Whimsical Wednesday #44

Since it is Wednesday we have a new Whimsical Wednesday challenge for you over at Whimsical DesignsThis weeks challenge is "Getting Sketchy" and we have a fun sketch for you to try designed by our own - Nanne.

Here is the sketch:


I had a lot of fun designing a card around this sketch. I used papers from Rocket Age by October Afternoon, I just love this line of papers. I cut the rocket and stars with my Cameo from Silhouette Studio files.

For the sentiment I used "I love You to the moon and back from Whimsical Fun - Vol 1, which you can purchase here.


I wanted some dimension, so I popped the rocket ship and stars up with Pop Dots. The moon sticker next to the sentiment is from Reminisce.


I hope you'll try your hand at our sketch this week and link up your card.

You also have one week left to enter the "Time Flies" challenge.

Supplies used: cardstock - kraft, cream. blue, red; patterned papers - Blast Off, Captains Log, All Systems Go, Incoming Transmition, Space Station and Black Hole all from Rocket Age by October Afternoon; rocket and stars cut from Silhouette Studio Files; moon sticker from Robot by Reminisce; sentiment - Whimsical Fun - Vol 1.

A Project Life crop?? really? How FUN!... my exciting news is that my sister that has been refusing to get into scrapbooking (not time...) just looked at my book again and said...I think I really want to do this...How much again?
