Kite Flying

Before video games, outdoor activities were all the rage. Believe it or not, there was a time when all of the kids were outside playing and interacting with all of the other neighborhood kids. After all, the temperature indoors was the same as outdoors. Two fun things were bike riding and kite flying.

The grass mounds, leaves, and blades of grass are all stamped using Old Olive. You can stamp twice before re-inking. This allows for the different shades of the same color.
