Page 15: 3..2..1...Blast Off (Rocket Ship Page)

Ok, this one has been mostly done for about a week. But I have been waiting for some of the materials I needed to arrive.... and they finally came in the mail yesterday!! :)

Anyhow... on to the page. It's sort of simple, just slide the rocketship from the earth to the moon. And I know, I know, the rocketship is out of proportion with the earth and the moon, but here's my take on it: it's the perspective from which you are viewing the rocketship that makes it look bigger... ha ha! :) Ok, truth is-- I found them (the rocket ships) on clearance at Micheals for 29 cents a piece. Now, would you have walked away from that deal??!! :)

Here are the 2 pages I made, side by side... amazing that even though they are similar, they are still different...


A little bit of a close up...

And thanks to the auto-rotate you will need to tilt your head to see this one right side up, but it's a close up of the earth I made...

And here's a somewhat close up of the moon, and the rocket ship.
I used eyelets to thread the ribbon through, and then the rocket just slides up and down fairly easily.

I got my inspiration for this page--- well, somewhere out there. It surely wasn't an original idea on my part! :)
