sending you sunshine
and some laughter too! :)
I soo love this sentiment “sending you sunshine and laughter”. What a way to send some cheer to someone special :)
Here are two such cards. The background is from PTI’s Make it Monday technique #58 Graduated Background – only that I used regular watercolour cakes.
The flowers were hand cut – yes, it does show isn’t it :)
ETA – The curve of the panel is soo totally inspired by Susan’s card here
The centre of the flowers are left colourless but with those gorgeous Ranger stickles.
This one uses the same hand water-coloured panel with Papertrey ink’s Tag its #3
The sentiment is from Hero Arts Everyday Sayings and stamped in two rows
Entering these to
