The theme this week at Heart 2 Heart is Hot, Hot, Hot! In celebration of summer (which has actually taken a cool turn around here, ironically enough) I crafted this simple sun card:
I thought about embellishing it, but ribbon or more stamped images just made that beautiful blue sky look too cluttered. So this design stayed clean & simple, which also made it relatively quick to put together - a nice bonus!
The sun is made with a 1 1/2" circle center, stamped with images from Dream Big and Connections on Sunny Yellow cardstock. I then stamped the pennants from the Pennant Alphabet using Sunflower ink on Sunny Yellow and Sunflower cardstock. The sky is...well, Sky cardstock, of course! Last, I used the clouds from Around the Block and stamped them in Pacifica ink. The sun is attached with foam tape.
The colors are more bright and cheerful than I was able to capture on this cloudy day. Enjoy the rest of your day!
Perky - this would be a great pick-me-up card on a cloudy sad day.
