Hi peeps! Today's card was made to brighten the day...because it's raining here again! Last week we had one day where it was 94 degrees out...now it's raining. Must be Spring! So, I came home tonight and made a sunny Tuscan scene card. I love these scenery stamps from Stampendous. I have three or four of them. They are really fun to color. The one I used tonight is called 'Sunflower Scene.' I have American Idol on in the craft room, and kitty by my side. I hope you're having a great week so far!
After I colored the image, I cut out around it to pop it up off the page and add some interest. It was hard to match papers to this one, so I kept it kind of simple.
Here are my Copic colors for this project! The blue is B12.
Here's a quick trick for your sentiment - try scoring it and folding it! The sentiment stamp is from Amuse and it's a fav.
Have a beautiful day! :-)
Thank you for coming by today!
Love the technique trick you've shared! Adorable scene and beautifully colored!! Love all the layers of color.

This is a real burst of sunshine, for sure, my friend! We've been having a ton of rain this entire week, too, and it's been a bit on the gloomy side. So this is just what I needed to brighten my day! Love, love what you did with the image. What wonderful coloring, and I really adore how you cut the image out. Love that banner sentiment, too. :)
