I have a fun card today that began with a piece of watercolor paper and some assorted Ranger distress inks. I randomly sponged on colors of Blueprint Sketch, Picked Raspberry, Wilted Violet, Spun Sugar and Citron inks. I stamped the SSS dog "Simon" on regular cardstock, colored it, added sunglasses and fussy cut it. Before adding the Lil Inker die-cut sun, I added some steamy rays of sun, stamped with a Market Street Stamps (now closed) background stamp and some Brilliance Platinum Planet pigment ink. Here's a close up of the sun rays.......
I added a SSS sentiment cut with a stitched circle die, and some die-cut grass and called this one done.
I'm sharing this one over at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge which is "Animal Magic."
Thanks for stopping by and make it a good day!

Well, you've summed up the weather perfectly here. I love your sunshiney background on this card. So neat looking and reflects (no pun intended) the sun's shining so well. You definitely need shades.
ReplyDeleteSuper card, Carol, what a fabulous background! xx
ReplyDeleteOMGosh, what a cute, cute card Carol! I love your background and the sun's rays, so amazing!!! Love the sun and sentiment, but it is the cute pooch that I love, he is too cool in those sunglasses! Hugs, Brenda
