Flowering

Good Morning

I hope you are doing well.

Creating has been my saving grace during this time off and isolation.

It gives me some peace in a crazy world.

I hope it does that for you too....takes your mind off of what is happening, even for a few moments.

I heard a quote yesterday that makes such sense....

"The best way to cheer yourself up is to try to cheer somebody else up."

(Mark Twain)

....so I have been creating and sending out cards that will hopefully brighten someone's day and let them know that I am thinking about them.

Anyways, onto my card design.

I began with a piece of heavy white cardstock.  I stamped the Large Floral from Magenta onto my card panel with some Versamark ink, then heat embossed it with some white powder.  

Using some orange, yellow and red Brushos, I watercoloured in the flowers.  So Spring like with those happy colours.  I so enjoy working with the Brushos as they give such intense colour to any project.

When that was dry, I die cut the stitched edge to add interest, added the die cut sentiment and a few orange sequins.  

Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.

Stay safe...blessings.
