Sunshine and Summer

Hi, thanks for stopping by.
 
The sun is out here (makes a change, it seems forever since the sun showed it's face!).  With this in mind, I decided to use lots of bright, happy, sunny colours today.  So we're all about oranges, reds and yellows.
 


 
CARD BASE - white cardstock (8 1/2" x 5 3/4") -  scored and folded in half
1ST MAT - Orange 'Cricut' paper (4" x 5 1/2")
2ND MAT - 'My Mind's Eye' (MME) 6x6 stack 'Blink of an Eye' (3 5/8" x 5 1/8")
3RD MAT - Lt. blue 'Cricut' paper (1 1/2" x 5 1/8")
4TH MAT - MME 'Blink of an Eye' (1 1/2" x 5 1/8") - 'X-cut' border punch 'Sparkler'
5TH MAT - Lt. blue 'Cricut' paper (3 5/8" x 1")
6TH MAT - MME 'Blink of an Eye' (3 5/8" x 1") - 'X-cut' border punch 'Looped Fringe'
STAMPED IMAGE - 'Hippie' by 'StitchyBear' - coloured with promarkers and pop-up using foam pads
SENTIMENT -  Rubber stamp by 'Keepsake Card Craft' - "From One Babe To Another"
All edges inked using Tim Holtz (Tea Dye)
GEMS - copper
STICKLES - icicle
STITCHING - 'Pentel' permanent marker

INSIDE MATS...
1ST MAT - MME 'Blink of an Eye' (7/8" x 5 1/2")
2ND MAT - Orange 'Cricut' paper (2 7/8" x 5 1/4")
3RD MAT - Lt. blue 'Cricut' paper (2 5/8" x 5") - left-overs from the 'Sparkler' punch in MME 'Blink of an Eye adhered to top and bottom
CIRCLES - MME ' Blink of an Eye' (1" circle punch)

I'm pleased with the way this turned out and I'm really liking this FREE didi stamp... thanks 'StitchyBear'.
