A friend of my hubby took voluntary redundancy last week and he and his family plan to use the opportunity to pursue his career in another country. I made this card to help them celebrate.

The card base is a Circle thinlit (133480) die cut from Island Indigo card. After stamping the World Map (Wood 130342 or Clear 130345) onto I Am Me DSP (130138) with Island Indigo ink, it was die cut (as described in the thinlit card tips here) and adhered to the front and inside back of the card. A Circle framelit (130911) was used to die cut another map from a different sheet of the same DSP and the plane from the Around the World stamp set (Wood 131080 or Clear 131083) was stamped onto it in Basic Gray ink. After stamping the plane a second time onto Whisper White card, it was fussy cut out and popped up on a sliver of dimensional over the original. The globe from the same stamp set was stamped onto Whisper White card with Island Indigo ink, fussy cut out again and popped up on a dimensional on the back of the card. Finally the sentiment from Itty Bitty Banners (Wood 132022 or Clear 126257) was stamped in Real Red ink onto Whisper White card and die cut out with the matching Bitty Banners framelit (129267) and popped up with more dimensionals on the card front.

For the message panel, the suitcase from the Around the World set was stamped in Pool Party ink (after stamping off once first) onto a Circle framelit die cut from Whisper White card.

I’ll be back soon to share the matching gift bag.
