hello everyone!
I don't know where the last month has gone - xmas then new year then recovering, I guess. lol
I have been making cards, well trying out new stamps anyway, but today I decided to do a challenge to get my head back in the game.
AAACards CAS game #181 presented a nice idea - use up to one-third of the card, with a summer in January twist.
Since it's actually summer in January here, I felt right at home. One glance out the window, and there's plenty of inspiration! I must admit, I simply can't do snow, especially in January. Is it just me?
I recently received a stamp set which has cherry blossoms and I looove it. Beautiful. Now I know cherry blossoms are traditionally associated with spring, but in early summer the petals start to fall so that's the idea I went with.
I think a subtle design and a subdued colour palette is relaxing - just the ticket in this balmy weather.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Supplies:
Altenew stamp: Under the cherry blossom
inks: Altenew sea glass, dusk, pink diamond, memento tuxedo black
