"Go into the arts. I'm not kidding. The arts are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven's sake. Sing in the shower, dance to the radio, tell stories, write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something" Kurt Vonnegut

Flying High
I cut the kites out of chipboard freehand, then covered them with some gingham paper. I took baker's twine and made the kite strings and the little bows on the string, then attached the kites to the card with glue dots. I also "fringed" the grass freehand and attached it to the card with a glue stick. The sun was a stamp I had, which I colored with a marker. Then I printed the sentiment on some white card stock, cut it out and edged it with Wild Honey Distress Ink and glued it to the card. March is usually a windy month, and it makes me think of kites. I hope you like it!
