I used the larger flower stamp from the Stampin' Up! stamp set called Just Believe. This is the first time I'm using this set and I love how pretty this flower image is. I colored my stamp using my SU markers and then I stamped it on the lower left hand corner of my card. Next, I stamped my sentiment using basic gray and then I sponged my sun.
I used a technique called reverse masking to make the sun. Basically, you take a piece of scrap paper and punch out a circle. Then place the scrap card stock with the open area where you would like the sun to be and sponge within that open/punched out area.
After my sun was finished I decided to sponge some clouds and I did a little bit of old olive sponging towards the bottom of my card. I did this sponging because I didn't want my card to be all white. I left my sentiment area white and so I didn't sponge over it.
For my embellishment I decided to add a row of three buttons with some white twine tied in the centers. Well, that's about it for today! Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a great rest of the day!
