The sun has come out in CT and some of the snow and ice is starting to melt. This makes my world happy! I created a card reflecting my mood.
CARD (5.5” wide x 4.25” tall)
Front Image: Revolving Earth and Smiling Sun
Front Sentiment: “You make my world happy”
Inside Sentiment: none
I created the base card from seafoam green cardstock and layered it with mint green cardstock and a patterned kraft paper. I printed the sentiment “You make my world happy” in the upper left quadrant and added a decorative ribbon band across the center of the card.
For the focal point of the card I stamped and colored a revolving earth on white cardstock and sponged tan around it to add depth. I matted the image on seafoam green and kraft cardstocks and affixed it to the card. To finish off the card I stamped the smiling sun on white cardstock, colored it, cut it out, and popped it on the corner of the image panel.
I elected to leave the inside blank, however, I did decorate it with a strip of the printed paper and popped on another smiling sun.
I created a coordinating envelope from heavy white cover stock and stamped a smiling sun in the lower left corner. I colored the sun to complete it.
