Up up and Away

Hi guys, it's time for a new challenge over at

Paper Take Weekly

This time the theme is spots and or stripes,

I made this for my Nephews Birthday last week, it's always so hard what to do for a grown man isn't it?

I used the fabulous papers from Maja Design's Vintage Autumn Basics collection, then just added a few paint dots with a stamp from my stash, and a clock from another of their papers, all edges are distressed and have Walnut stain distress ink added,

the Gears are chipboard from Dusty Attic and I added texture sand then when dry painted them with my sprays, finally adding a hint of Inka Gold Waxes to them,

The wooden Balloon is from my stash and I drew around the shape,in some of the papers, edged it with vintage photo distress ink and distressed the edges too,

The chocolate button  twine is from The Ribbon Girl, screw heads are junk findings, I found on sale in a local craft shop,

Have Fun!!
