Some Sunshine For You

Happy Wednesday to you!

Can you believe this weather?  One day we have snow/ice and the next it is sunny and warm.  Hopefully it will make up its mind soon.

When I began my card I wanted to do a bright and cheery card to bring some sunshine and warmth to everyone who looks at it.  I knew I would be using Daffodil Delight.

I found a great sketch challenge at Our Creative Corner.  That I thought would be fun to do.  I hadn’t used Fifth Avenue Floral in a while so I thought the daisy would be fun – besides daisies are a fun Spring flower.  When I looked at the sketch below I saw the daisies as the oval element.

 I began by stamping the daisy with Basic Black.  I then colored the centers in with the Daffodil Delight marker.  I then decided to try adding some color with the blender pen and ink in the lid.  I liked the look of the Daffodil one so I used colors from the Color Coach to do the other 2.

When I was finished coloring all 3 I pulled out my glitter pen and added some sparkle as I love sparkle on a card.  Next I used the leaf stamp from Autumn Splendor to stamp the background.  Then I ripped the edge.  When I laid out the pieces on the the card base, it needed something so I pulled out my skinny black taffeta and added 2 rows with a knot.  Here is my final creation.

Hope you enjoyed my little bit of sunshine.  Thanks for looking and have a Wonderful Wednesday!

  3. Hi Robbie. I love this card. I liked the colors, the leaves stamped on the background paper, and how you colored the flowers. The flowere really stand out. I may have to copy this when I start stamping again. Sandy
