Sketch Challenge: Above

Today i am participating in the "Ruby Rock-It sketch contest on the Page Maps blog.

This is the sketch:



My photo:


The photo was taken a few years ago in my former fabulous life as a flight attendant. It's the picture of another plane crossing our route.


And the final layout:



To create the page i used brown packaging paper and plain white paper. Both are crumpled, distressed with Tim Holtz Distress Ink Vintage Photo and sprayed with green paint and brown watercolor.
( Real mists are not in my budget right now, but acrylic paint thinned with water in a perfume spray bottle creates the same effect).

I also included paper from the Glitz Design Happy Travels collection as well as two metal signs from airplane galley containers.





Btw, i am in no way related with First Choice Airways, but isn't that the most awesome name for an airline??
LOVE it!!
