you make me smile...

Hello there my friends. Today I have a CAS offering for you. It is also a very quick card to make.


The background is created with distress inks and brushes. I started off by masking the sun, and then built up the sky with fossilized amber, abandoned cora, mermaid lagoon and stormy sky.
For the hills I tore some copy paper and used crushed olive and cracked pistachio.
Then I used a set of stamps from Sheena Douglass that came with a magazine and stamped in black archival ink.


So I hope that it makes you smile too, Theresa xx

I would like to enter this card in the following challenges:

The Outlawz sunday challenge - CAS: friendship
The Outlaws Monday challenge - Sentiment: make me smile laugh

  3. This is beautiful Theresa and the sihouette stamps are just perfect against that pretty background scene. I have these stamps too and have used the butterfly but the rest are uninked as yet so must rectify that. x
