Hi Everyone,
It’s the first of the month again and
time for a new challenge at the Just For Fun challenge Blog.
This month the theme is 'Here comes
Summer'. Lots of things come to mind for summer and for me the peace and
tranquility of warm sunny days with blue skys, green countryside and gardens
full of flowers that bring back lots of memories.
So with that in mind I created this
card....
On the base card (A4 folded in half) I used blue, antique linen
and green distress inks to create a soft background and I stamped some
foliage over the green .
I cut an oval aperture in a piece of
card slightly smaller than the base card to coincide with the background
colouring. I thought it needed a little something so I drew some birds in the
sky. I mounted the top card onto the card with foam pads.
I then added flowers from stash and used a
Joy die cut for the swirly foliage .
I added some fancy peel offs for the
corners to tie it all together.
I hope you like it and you get some
inspiration too.
Pop over to the Just
for Fun Challenge Blog and have a look at the other Design Team makes
for some lovely Summer Fun cards.
From the 1st July we will be "Anything Goes" for every
challenge.
Have Fun, Hugs,
Kay. xx
