i pulled out my copic airbrush and a couple of taylored expressions stamps and dies for this card - to create the background i die cut a couple of clouds to use as masks, then airbrushed the sky with two shades of blue copics. the flag and flower were stamped onto a scrap of cardstock, colored and cut out. and i'm thinking i might cut this down and put it in one of my project life pockets for this week.
