Sunny Dreams

Still not a lot of crafty stuff going on here and I apologise for my sporadic visits to you all. 

The yellow Brusho was out on the desk at the time of this make so splatted a little of that in a couple of places first.

Different grungy stamps used for the background, all stamped in Fossilized Amber. (I love this colour as it always makes me think of sunshine)

The flower head is from Altenew and I paired it with the stem and leaves from another stamp then watercoloured.
The bee was stamped twice, once on the card and once on another scrap, fussy cut the wings and glittered them a little.

Finished by stamping the word 'Dream' and a couple of my fave 'splatters' and thanks to Hermine for the inspiration whilst my mojo is AWOL!

We're in desperate need of some sunshine in these parts so your card is a welcome sight. Gorgeous bit of grungy stamping there and your flower really pops. Love it X

This is so sunny and cheerful, Viv! Love that background with the pretty flower! Looks like the bee is quite happy too!

This is so bright and cheerful. The bee looks so real and I like your background. I, too, have been sporadic in visits and some days a card and some days no interest. I think it's the warm weather and being outside on my part. Plus being able to get out more in public.

Sun, what sun. A fantastic card Viv and yesterday it would have been perfect, although it's not cold it's been overcast here all day and now it's dropping the wet stuff from the sky again. hope you've had a great weekend.
