Leaving On A Jet Plane






Many of you will recall that I just made a trip to Missouri to attend my Aunt's funeral. My uncle and my cousins made fun of my luggage as it was stuffed! When I returned home it was overflowing. This image was perfect to send to my cousin not only to wish her happy birthday but to remind her of my suitcases. Not only has she just lost her mom she just discovered that her oldest son has been diagnosed with stomach and liver cancer, stage four. I hope this card will brighten her day.
I colored my stamp with Copics. I chose paper from my scrap basket. I love the green striped paper as it reminds me of pillow ticking.  A couple of acrylic flowers and some hearts completed this fun card. 
I am entering this card at the following challenges:

My Song: (Peter, Paul and Mary)
All my bags are packed
I'm ready to go
I'm standin' here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breakin'
It's early morn
The taxi's waitin'
He's blowin' his horn
Already I'm so lonesome
I could die
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
'Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go
