Sun


I just found a new challenge blog- Casology where they put up a cue card and off you go! The cue card for this week said 'Sun'.Well, we've seen so little of it I was inspired to make this warm, jungle/oriental one layer card. I stamped and coloured the parakeets and then masked them whilst I brushed in the sun, using my Big and Juicy Sunset ink pad.  The bamboo is made with my Promarkers, leaving each stroke on for a second to make the joints in the stems. A little Hello sentiment from the SU Pennant parade set and it's all finished, very quickly! A true 5 minute card.
