It has been a wet and cold week so I have spent some time in the craft space making inky and catching up with a few orders. (Not that I needed an excuse!)
This card came together with the addition of a scrap of card cut with a curved stitched die!I blended a variety of red/yellow/orange Distress Inks and then applied the Bokeh technique using a home made stencil.
I added a strip of bright orange card to the die cut to split the card and popped on a die cut sentiment and a couple of sequins to finish.

Am hoping that the forecast for a nice day tomorrow is right as it would be lovely just to be able to take a cuppa outside for half an hour and look at blue sky instead of a grey wet and miserable landscape. (And give my poor drowned pots and containers some TLC without it feeling like it's November instead of July!)
Have a great weekend whatever you're all doing and thanks for taking the time to stop by today.
I am on countdown to the visit to the hairdressers on Monday! x

A lovely bright and cheery card even if your weather has been dire. Hopefully it will go back to summer very soon.
It may have been raining outside but you brighten everything up with the colours you've used on this gorgeous card Viv.
