I knew I was going to do a kite when my hubby came home one Saturday with the harlequin fabric sample. I've simply glued it to some card, added yellow ric-rac, some red & diamond Stickles and some clear gems.
The tail is some gorgeous thread from here, http://www.etsy.com/shop/CAROLYNSAXBYTEXTILES to which I tied various coloured ribbons. My letter 'K' is just a letter bead threaded onto more ribbon.
I love the chorus of the song written by Richard & Robert Sherman for the Disney classic Mary Poppins; so cheery and uplifting and it definitely makes me want to 'Go Fly A Kite'
Let's go fly a kite
Up to the highest height!
Let's go fly a kite and send it soaring
Up through the atmosphere
Up where the air is clear
Oh, let's go fly a kite!
If you fancy hearing the whole song, go here, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g89NxTTycxc
