I've never flown nor have I ever been to Chicago but these fun facts I do know:

• "windy city"
• the first ferris wheel made it's debut here
• Lincoln Park Zoo is one of only 3 major zoos that has free admission
• Wrigley Field
• is the first free cultural center in the US
• home to the largest Tiffany glass dome
• Frank Sinatra introduced "My Kind of Town (Chicago is)"

RECIPE and SUPPLIES:

• Easel card following the tutorial at Splitcoasters using Recollection Cardstock and travel paper received in a swap
• image was colored using Prisma Colored Pencils and chalked around the edges with gel pen accents
• of course the Stickles Fairy had to pay a visit on the word Chicago and the "wind"
• plane and suitcase were cut using Cricut Heritage Cartridge and puff-dotted onto the background
• plane has rhinestone gems for the windows and gel pen accents
• suitcase has a blue background and of course I got a bit crazy when I made a tiny tiny luggage tag 

• Queen and Co. black buttons for her dress along with silver on the sentiment
• sentiment, "Globetrotting . . . " is the freebie that is being offered from Create with TLC on your destination adventure which was mounted on blue paper was chalked around the edges with the arrows colored using gel pen

Your next stop on our hop is Rhonda Sue
