I know you have the strength

Today I made a happy card. 

I will enter it in the Just Add Ink challenge #530. 

Just card, paper, stamp and ink. No die cuts, no embossing, no embellishments.  Simple and happy.

Positivity through colour, and hope using bright beautiful bunting.  Don't you just love bunting? I aimed to convey positivity shining out from the rain, through myriad colours and a positive affirmation.  

I hope you find some joy today.

you made my day

I made a card to put in the Try Stampin on Tuesday challenge, because guess what?  It's Tuesday!  What better reason to spend the afternoon with paper and inks! 

 

The TSOT #482 challenge provided a calming, pleasing template, and I was happy to go along with the feeling. 

Don't you just looove the colour combination of Coastal Cabana and Shaded Spruce?  So pretty, so positive. I couldn't just have the banner in Coastal Cabana so I punched out some leaf fronds, and fussy cut the leaves from some Forever Greenery DSP (I just love that paper!) The circle is lifted on dimensionals and the sentiment finished with a few rhinestones. A simple but distinct card, I find the colours and sentiment lift my spirits.
