HERE is what I chose for inspiration from our hot air balloon site at Pinterest.
I had this wonderful bookmark that I had saved, and YOWZA, I remembered where I put it.
This is a graduation card for our grandson Jake, who is getting his Master's degree to be a History teacher. What better than a card showing hot air balloon launching in 1783!! The words are,
"Let your dreams take flight."
(I'm going to remake this without all the mistakes!)

You have mistakes on this DF? Where? I think this is FABULOUS for Jake and congrats to him on his Master's. What a wonderful card for him. You certainly had the perfect paper for your inspiration. I love this Z fold and how the letters are depressed - I think that's cool. Great card DF.

Beautiful bookmark, Anne, and so perfect for your inspired piece too! Love the way you embedded the F-L-Y right into the bookmark and on the other side also. You, Julia and I chose the same IC piece~
