I chose a beautiful image from a favourite CD from the Joanna Sheen stable - Faye Whittaker Collection - CD2 - Country & Garden section.
Here it is.
I just loved the Spring/Summer look to the image and the sentiment of a Mother and child spending time together. I added the Birthday sentiment and the borders with my ACDSee programme. The green and blue mats were cut using the Pretty Shabby rectangular dies. I haven't got bored with using them yet. There is something so pleasing about the effect.
The gems in the corners are more of my purchases from China. I do see now that they are available from UK suppliers.
I hope the recipient (whoever it may be) will like it as much as I enjoyed making it. For me, it just seemed to flow.
Please take the time to comment - if you wish of course - and to visit my fellow teamies. If you click on their names above their cards it will take you straight to them.
Stay home and keep safe.
Love and hugs

A gorgeous card, lovely image from a beautiful CD
ReplyDeleteI love the colours of the mats and agree with you about the Pretty Shabby dies, they really do set off an image so nicely. The image you have chosen reminds me of school days as we had a similar picture in one of the classrooms but the figure in the scene looked to me like one of the pupils from an earlier generation wearing a navy blue pinafore which all first and second years had to wear. :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you all for your kind comments. It is a card I thoroughly enjoyed making.
