| Click larger for details. Hi friends! |
I'm here with a DT card for our new challenge at TIME OUT Challenges where we are inspired by words:
'If you have good thoughts they will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely' Road Dahl
As always, our challenge runs for two weeks and we also have a guest designer, Toni, whose card for us totally makes me smile. Don't miss Toni's brilliant card, work by our DT or any challenge details, click HERE.
I decided to concentrate on the sun-part of the quote and colored in W+9 flowers with sunny colors. The card is also really shiny -all the greenery is glittered up with Wink of Stella and I also added some clear, sparkly Nuvo Crystal drops. There's a couple of tiny rhinestones too and about 1 million white dots that I made with acrylic paint and paint brush. To be honest it all looks a bit crazy (like snow and raindrops at the same time...) but that's how it is this time. :) The stamped greeting is by Papertrey Ink. The background is very lightly inked with pale yellow DI and old make up brush. Hope you like and thanks for popping by!

Beautiful, Nonni ... your colouring is amazing (as always!) ... and I love all the tiny white dots ... puts me in mind of pollen drifting on a soft summer breeze! Hugs, Anita :)
ReplyDeletewell I love all that tiny detail and sparkle, zoomed in so I could see it and wow I bet IRL it looks amazing. I immediately noticed how the colour fades at the edges of the flowers and had in mind the sun fading..I know my mind works in a weird way! But I think it sums up the quote to perfection x
ReplyDeleteLove the softly inked background. So beautiful and subtle at the same time!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colouring! And I love the light background surrounding the flowers! Hugs, Gerrina
