Flying By Birthday card


I love this little bear and airplane.  Such a fun stamp to color and fussy cut.  Newton's Nook does offer matching dies but since I love fussy cutting so much, I decided to do it on my own.  I stamped the banner on red stock and on the blue sky in the background on the card so that string between the plane and banner appeared (you can't fussy cut that).
