Enjoy the sunshine!


Good morning, here's my DT card for Creative Moments, the optional theme(s) this fortnight are 'weather' and/or add a sentiment.
Our four sponsors this time (yes, I did say 4!) are



I made a Z fold card using this gorgeous summery image from Besties...isn't she enjoying the lovely hot sunshine! I used my copics to colour the image. For the background 'sky' I coloured a piece of white cardstock with my lovely new  Distress Oxide Inks, adding a die cut scribbly circle to represent the sun. I added some die cut flowers and stamped the sentiment.
 I couldn't get very good lighting for the photos...colours are much brighter IRL!


Please click here to see what the rest of the DT have created for your enjoyment , and of course to add your own fabulous project! 

Have a great day
Chris

Oh Chris, the falling snow outside seems suddenly even colder as I look at your wonderful, summery scene. Beautiful colours! Your flowers and that gorgeous little sun-bathing beauty are coloured and shaded beautifully. Love the "z" fold, too. Thanks so much for joining our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.

Chris what a great card you've designed with your mixed challenges. Love the way that little sunbather captures the z-fold and rides above it all. She sure looks cute and is beautifully coloured along with the other images in the card. Very summery and feminine. Thanks for sharing with us at the Watercooler Wednesday Feminine Challenge this week.
