When I checked Cindy's blog on Sunday I had a feeling Snoop would be out looping the loop today. He'll be winging his way with my best wishes to Sean. I have a cousin who had testicular cancer. To me it's a bit like breast cancer for women, more than other cancers they strike at your identity. Not fun.
I was lazy and didn't paper-tole Snoopy's plane - just as well, as I managed to cut myself just cutting one out, never mind three. The background is watercolour paper. I used a stiff brush and masking fluid to create the contrail before washing it with two shades of blue watercolour. Then I stamped the sentiment and the treetops. Stampabilities image was stamped on Bristol Board with Versafine Black, coloured with re-inkers and cut out. A basic, simple card, size to fit a business envelope.
Since we're partying outdoors today I've brought some picnic food - Coronation Chicken, and some hot spicy tomato soup because it's so darn cold.

Aww what a fun card Sabrina! Sean will love it. Fabulous idea using the masking fluid for the contrail to show up. The trees peeking out as a border look great! I think I will sit next to you at the party. Your food sounds delicious!! Hugs my friend!!

What a fun card to have your private air show. Snoopy always brings smiles which will be an especially good thing for Sean. Your cut out plane shows up so nicely with the contrail you created.
