It was a challenge to come up with something for this sketch and then I thought of this plane. I stamped it and fussy cut it. Cut a 3/4" circle of vellum and added it with a brad for the propeller. I popped the plane. My DH really likes this one, I hope you do too. TFL.

What an inspired use of the fold, Catherine. Your thinking time paid off and hit the jackpot. It's a fabulous masculine card, I like the dark night-time feel to it, and love your use of the fold to give a space to stamp the contrail.

No wonder your DH really likes this design .... it's a perfect masculine card. The vellum prop really adds wonderful interest.

What a fabulous idea for use of this fold! If you had a modern space ship it might look like the Enterprise from Star Trek flying through space. Love this!

Oh, why didn't I think of this set! The placement of the plane and the smoke puffs is just perfect and makes an awesome card. Love the vellum propeller on the plane, too!
