...I mean that literally. My DH has some awesome kites. They are huge. It takes two people to reel one in. We learned from experience to put our name and number on the kite. One time one got so high the nylon string broke. DH took out after it in the car but was unable to find it. We put an ad in the paper and some very nice people answered it. So after that we put our name and number on all our kites.
Steph, great IC site once again. I was inspired by this greeting card. ......briefly what I did.....
I stamped my little boy and girl and their trusty dog on w/c paper. Drew the hills around them and added the kite. Gave the doggie a balloon.
All coloring was done with re-inkers, lot's of them. Versa marked and clear ep the flower, kites and balloon.
Then disaster struck. I dropped a RED ink pad on the top. Thought this card was doomed to be trashed. BUT instead I painted over the red lines then sponged in the clouds hoping it covered up this large boo boo and we aren't talking bear.
Well, try to focus on the left side of the card. Lol......TFL :0)

You made a boo boo Mutnik - I don't think so. Well, if you did, I can't see it. I LOVE your style and how you can just hand draw in as you see fit. It always makes your cards unique and I just love your background!!! TFS!!!
