A Little Sunshine …

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:

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!!!!
