I love You

August 1st?  Holy moly, summer is almost over, and soon my children will be heading back to school.  Buck holy moly, I still cannot believe it is August already.  Well today, the Avocado Arts crew is posting projects using the August stamp set, Zipnby to Say Hi.  It is such a fun, happy set, and is my favorite set so far (if I had to pick a favorite lol).  

Make sure to visit the rest of the designers, too see their projects.

I used some new (to me) Authentique pattern paper, paired with a label from the Spellbinders Orchard Harvest die template set, and the Classic Petal set..  I really cannot resist woodgrain paper, especially with a pretty floral background on the "b" side.  After I stamped the sentiment and image, I filled in the paper airplane with a red Spica Glitter pen, and went over the black with a black Spica Glitter pen.  In real life it makes the ink look super glittery and shimmery.  To finish off the card I used some Want2Scrap bling and black ribbon.
