CR84FN26

Good Morning to you ... 
I hope you are enjoying the day 
It's been a lovely Bank Holiday here .. 4 days of glorious sunshine which is very rare for the UK ... it nearly always rains on Bank Holidays ... 
I have a card I made for this weeks colour challenge at CR84FN ... here is the inspiration picture and another amazing quotation ...


and my card ...


I had a scrap of pale yellow which I stamped pretty roses onto to give that rich gold colour and adhered this to a piece of corrugated card ...
The postcard is a digital image from Iralamija's Etsy shop and the mushroom image is also from Etsy Madebyjanet ...


I'm really loving these soft colours ... and I have to say that without these challenges I probably would never have come up with these pretty combinations ... I have grown so much from following sketches, colour combinations and techniques ... Thank you to all you challenge blogs out there for the fun and encouragement ...

Have a lovely day
Till soon ... keep safe

So so gorgeous! I have found it hard to tear myself away from that amazing bow. Serious. the allure of satin and in that fab color too. The mushies are too cute. The entire card is such a real stunner and for so many reasons. Well done!
