Hello Everyone - Happy Friday!
Well, hopefuly the sun is shining, the birds are singing (although I'm not happy they're nesting in our roof!), and it's got the makings of a great day - because I've something summery to share :)
It's a quick card that I prepared whilst hoping the weather would work out, using punch art, or in my case die art, where you make your own embellishments or characters from cut shapes.
I simply cut out pieces of blue card using a hydrangea head style die. I inked the edges in yellow, green and pink, to try and get a more natural colour, as I love the variegated petals, and then added a little sparkle to the centres (Clear gems, coloured with a yellow marker).
I used another die to cut a frame, which I raised up on foam for dimension. The branches are from my bird punch, and I thought they added a little interest. Finally, a stamped greeting on a few foam pads to curve it finished off the card nicely.
I hope that this - and the gorgeous weather inspires you - Keep crafting, and don't forget to keep checking back all weekend with more from the girls :)
Bye for now, and thanks for dropping in!
