March seems to always be a windy month, so I decided to use this fun image called Comin' Down. I took the embossing challenge and used a cloud embossing folder. First I sponged Distress ink colors on glossy card stock, ran it through the embossing folder and then sanded over the clouds with a sanding block. I paper pieced the (parachute), fussy cut the image and pop dotted it to the card.
