This is the card that I made for today's WTUI challenge, which you can find here: WT854 ~ Man Takes to the Air ~ {07/22/2021} by Cook22 at Splitcoaststampers
I thought about using Snoopy in his biplane, as that is definitely man-powered flight even if Snoopy is a dog. But recently when I was using the New York cityscape stamp, I realised that Rome was the only one on the set I had never used. So I pulled that out, stamped it on some DP, stamped the plane, and then embossed with the SU folder. I stamped the prop again vellum with Ranger's Archival Black and added it with a faux brad. The sentiment is from Unity's Adventure Awaits, the plane is SU The Sky is the Limit, and the cityscape is Tim Holtz. I added a double black border with a Sharpie and a fine pen. Card is A2.

Wow Sabrina this is so pretty, love the texture and this EF works so well with the plane and the city scape, I thought you fussy cut your plane and stuck it over the embossing but I saw you stamped it before, really beautiful!!

What a fabulous masculine card, Sabrina! Love the texture and the Rome scape, but the way the vellum propeller creates movement is brilliant! Thanks so much for the wonderful challenge!

How fabulous! I love that you embossed after stamping and then had Europe and Asia perfectly available for your sentiment! And the faux brad....amazing!
