October Afternoon's Fly A Kite

Here are a few cards I made using October Afternoon's Fly A Kite collection. I love that the colors are not gender specific. I used papers, rubons, stickers, even some of the packaging! If you want to pick up some Fly A Kite, you can find some in That Scrappy Girl's store. It's storming outside so I'd better get of the computer, so this will be a short post tonight.
