Sending You Sunshine

Hello bloggers!  I started with a piece of Pixie Powdered card from my stash for today's card.  I used Midnight Blue, Lava Red and emerald GreenPixie Powders  on it.  Next I cut the background of the Beach Sunset Stained Glass out of black card.  I cut the centre ring of the die set out of white card and layered it onto the background.  I cut the inside decorative die out of black card and added a piece of sticky adhesive sheet to the back of it.  I hand trimmed around it so it matched the circle edge of the die cut.  Using Polished Silk Glitters, I layered the colours in stripes up the die.  I started with turquoise for the ocean then added Ice Blue, Vintage Violet, Fire Red, Brilliant Blue then lavender at the top. I layered the glittered die cut in the centre of the white ring with mounting foam.  I cut the Sending You Sunshine sentiment in black and nipped the word Sunshine apart from it and glued it next to the other two words.  The card as completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 1/2"  x  7 3/4"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

I lost my job few months back and there was no way to get income for my family, things was so tough and I couldn't get anything for my children, not until a met a recommendation on a page writing how Mr Bernie Wilfred helped a lady in getting a huge amount of profit every 6 working days on trading with his management on the cryptocurrency Market, to be honest I never believe it but I took the risk to take a loan of $1000. and I contacted him unbelievable and I was so happy I earn $12,500 in 6 working days, the most joy is that I can now take care of my family I don't know how to appreciate your good work Mr. Bernie Doran God will continue to bless you for being a life saver I have no way to appreciate you than to tell people about your good services.
