For the Inspiration Challenge (IC65, Angie chose a super site & we are to chose a souvenir from our state or country. So I chose my home state of Texas since I have stamps for that state. I was inspired by THIS postcard depicting the town where I grew up..though I was a little disappointed they spelled it wrong 😕
To make my Corpus Christi (aka: Sparkling City by the Sea) skyline card, I made a bg w/ Brushos then die cut the silhouette skyline. I used another skyline die that had a bridge (because Corpus has the big Bay Bridge) & added a piece of it to the right side. I also die cut the moon & stars & the Stars word to insert it into the greeting. The inside of the card has the "Deep in the Heart of Texas" part. Now all you fellow Texans (& a few who want to be, lol) will be singing that song. You're welcome!!
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups & the inside are on my blog: The Write Stuff

So Artistic, Julie! It's amazing the things that can be achieved using brushos. I love the "Stars" in different colors as well as your creative city scape~

I love the colors across the skyline! The Stars being in a bigger font is fantastic - how you cut it out and made another layer! I love Corpus Christi!
