Got Wind?


Funny title for a funny challenge at Splitcoast this am, Got Wind?  Make a card depicting anything to do with wind.  This little bunny form The Cat's Pajamas worked perfectly for that.  
I began making my card by inking the chevron background stamp from Hero Arts with Distress inks (Salty Water and Broken China) and spraying with water before stamping.  I mounted that on my card front on an angle.  Next came the bunny.  I stamped him, paper pieced the parachute and then coloured him with Copic markers.  I added him with pop dots to look like he is floating over the sentiment.

I am adding my card to these challenges:
