Life is a Journey - Enjoy the Flight

Hi friends!

Today I’m sharing a card I created for the Sharing Summer Instagram Hop. This week’s theme is Golden Hour Glow, and I thought it was the perfect opportunity to blend some warm sunset colors behind this cute little airplane.

For this project, I used the Mini Delights: Enjoy the Flight stamps and dies from Altenew.  The stamps and dies are from this month's subscription.  This is such a fun little set that makes it easy to put together a quick yet striking card.

Creating the Sky Background:
To achieve the golden hour effect, I inked up the sky stamp in three steps:

• I started by applying Sunray ink to the bottom portion of the stamp.

• Next, I inked the top with Honey Drizzle.

• Finally, I sponged a bit of Coral Red across the very top to deepen the color and create a warm glow.

I love how the gradient turned out—like the last bit of sunlight before dusk.

Finishing Touches:
I die cut and layered the airplane and added it at an angle over the background. The sentiment, life is a journey, enjoy the flight, seemed perfect for this theme.

I hope this card inspires you to embrace the journey and soak in those golden moments this summer.

Happy crafting!
