Sending You Sunshine

Hello there my crafty friends!  I embossed a piece of white card with the Stripes embossing folder.  Next I selected a piece of Pixie Powdered card done in Purple Violet for the background to the Beach Sunset Stained Glass die.  I cut the outer die in black and backed it with thee pixied card.  I cut the middle ring in white and layered it up.  I cut the Beach Sunset die in both tan and green.  I used the tan die cut as the base and cut the heads off of the palm tree in the green die cut.  I sponged some Tumbled Glass on to the waves and added a small sun cut from a leftover piece of pixied card done in Burnt Orange Pixie Powders.  I cut the Sending You Sunshine out of an extra bit of the Purple Pixied card and glued it to the bottom of the card.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7"  x  8 1/2"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

  2. Oh wow what an amazing vibrant background with just one colour, those bottles of pixies maybe small but as in all myths and fairy story books - pixies are small but powerful. As for your sentiment yes you have sent the sunshine at least here in Bolton lol that big yellow ball is a rare sight in our skies so we make the most of it, my fingers just about survived another winter lol.
    Love to all, keep well keep safe xxx

  6. Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, how do you come up with all these gorgeous samples Sue, this one is amazing with the stunning pixie powder colours and creating the trees and sand with the tan and green card, then the stained glass effect, well you know I love that, so this is another winner for me.

    Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
