Sending Big Hugs
Good Sunday morning all! These weeks seem to fly by, don't they! I used a piece of card that I covered with Golden Sunrise and Ray Of Sunshine Pearlescent Watercolour inks on. I spritzed them with water and allowed them to spread across the card. I cut the Sending Big Hugs in black and added it to the white shadow backing piece. I added it to the background with mounting foam. I cut a trio of the butterflies from the Dainty Butterfly set cut in white. The card was completed with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x 8 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, you always make such beautiful coloured backgrounds, I can never get mine as good as this, todays is stunning, and the 'Sending Big Hugs' is so popular at the moment. Thank you for sharing this one xx
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Hi Sue. The great thing about using sentiments in this size which form the main image of the card is that you don't have to worry about adding too much else which could cover up that wonderful background. Great summer colours!
Good Morning Sue. Big card, beautiful background and big sentiment. Lovely card today Thankyou Sue. Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone who needs them today. Please stay safe and well 🙏. Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds

Yes, the weeks are flying by. I am always looking forward to Spring after New Years. We have daffodils blooming all over our yard but its still chilly out. Sunshine like this card though. Stephanie K
