Spreading Sunshine

Some sunshine for you all with this card using the Papertake Weekly Sketch and Designs by Krista Southern Sunrise papers. Still hanging on to the Summer as best I can :)

The swirl was made by printing the flourish embellishment from Krista's kit onto inkjet acetate, cutting it out and layering on top of a paper flower fixing with the brad. I like the translucent affect you get :)

Materials:
Stamps - Stampin'Up; HOTP
Papers - Designs by Krista Southern Sunrise
Colouring - Watercolour pencils
Inks - Versafine Black; Versacolor blue and orange, distress inks weathered wood
Other - printable acetate; pearl brad
