Hello Sunshine

Hello bloggers!  How about some cheeky flamingos for todays' card!  I started with the Sunrise mask taped to a piece of white card.  I used Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide ink through the stencil, then went back over and blended in some Spiced Marmalade in the sun area and tips of the rays.  I used the Double Stitched Ovals and made a white frame and attached it with foam over the stenciled background.  I trimmed away the excess from the edges.  I used the Dotty Flourish embossing folder on a piece of white card and attached the frame in the centre.  Next I cut a bunch of the various flamingos from the Tickled Pink die set out of Soft Salmon card.  I used a black sharpie to colour their beaks and yes, I just noticed that I missed colouring the beak of the one in the very front!  Oops!  I cut the wings seperately and glued them on them added the flamingos into the frame, slightly overlapping them.  I cut the Hello Sunshine sentiment out of Soft Salmon and black card.  I used the black as a shadow behind, then glued it in the lower corner of the card.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6"  x  7" in size.  All for now, Sue x
