This card isn’t an exact interpretation of the sketch, but I’m going with it regardless. Using a new StampinUp stamp set called Kite Delight I picked one of the smaller kites and stamped it in dark red. I masked off the kite and then stamped the cloud from the same set. Then I stamped one of the trailing strings on a separate piece so I could fussy cut and only use a portion of the string. As I wanted my orientation to be slightly different after I fussy cut I turned it over and coloured the back side before adhering it flat. The little silhouette is from an old GKD set and I did some stamp surgery so she could hold the end of the string. Then from that same set I used the sentiment stamp that seemed most appropriate for the mood of this card. The kite flower centers were coloured in a sparkle gold using a Sakura pen and I also added some sparkle to the trailing string bows. To cut this panel I used a die from the mixed edge rectangles from Essentials after which I added it to the card front.
Lovely card! I like how the girl is holding the big kite.

I thought it looked okay although the girl could be bigger in my opinion. I find silhouette stamps a bit challenging at times.

You just used the small girl from the Framescrapes set. I think it worked fine.

Totally creative and great take on the sketch challenge. I almost missed your silhouette girl because of focusing on that gorgeous kite.

I knew the silhouette was a bit small but thought it would look like she was taking off so went with it anyway. Glad you like it.

How sweet!!! The little girl holding the kite string is so cute. Kind of looks like the kite could pull the little girl.

That became the idea when I realized the stamp was on the small side. Glad you like it.
