Hello friends,
A clean and simple card to share today. As we are in the middle of our winter season in the Southern Hemisphere I really need a little sunshine and cheerful yellow colors today!
My card features an image from the Penny Black stamp set “Nature’s wishes”. To add dimension to the card I die cut half a circle in the top layer and then lift the panel off the card base with mirror tape. I used my Derwent Inktense pencils to color the image. The sentiment is from the same stamp set.
I entered my card in the following challenges:
- CASology Week#201 (ends 06/14) – Cue word “Sunshine”
- Inky Impressions June Challenge (07/04) – Summertime
- Inspiration Destination Challenge #89 (ends 06/15) – Anything Goes
- {PIN}spirational Challenge #167 (ends 06/20) – Birds
- Allsorts Challenge Week #366 (ends 06/11) – The Great Outdoors

The sentiment
Project details:
- White and yellow card-stock
- Penny Black stamp set “Nature’s Wishes” (30-109)
- Derwent Inktense watercolor pencils
Thanks for visiting today and for leaving comments – I really appreciate your time. Have a wonderful day.
Kind regards,
Amelia

Amelia, jong, jy moet meer CAS kaartjies maak – jy het ‘n wonderlike aanleg daarvoor!!! Hierdie is net eenvoudig soooooo skattig – jy’t verseker alweer ‘n wenner hier!!!! Wat ‘n fraai stamp en jy het dit so goed en slim gebruik!!!! Ek hou ook van die kreatiewe manier waarop jy die prentjie ingekleur het!!!! Baie, baie mooi!!!
Groete en ‘n lekker Sondag!!! Dis koud in George, maar ons het darem ‘n bietjie son gehad vandag!!!!
