It is a nippy 40 ish here today West of Chicago , but the sun is out! Yippee!!! Spring is coming!
So, I grabbed a floral image by Designed2Delight and whipped up a cheery card- for a friend who is just starting chemo- I hope it will brighten her day!
I am not usually a yellow card maker, but this yellow paper screamed -use me, use me...... it is called Sunshine Yellow column and has embossed lines side to side- adds nice texture. The image is paper pieced with a Technique Junkies background I made a long time ago. The flowers are colored with Copics and the green is not so gray IRL..... The tops of the flowers have a second layer and some of the leaves are 'curled' before I added adhesive giving the flowers a touch of dimension. Sentiment is by SU.
