That is the name of this weeks challenge at Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge... Bright and Cheerful! That was what came to mind when I was creating this card. I thought it would brighten someone's day.
To create the card, I used a white base with a layer of Lawn Fawn Perfectly Plaid Rainbow paper. I just love this paper and could purchase over and over again. I did the corner treatment with a quarter of a paper doily, an SU! scalloped punch and flower w/ a beaded center. I also added a row of white ric rac beneath my image. I pulled out an old Hero Arts wood mounted set called Birthday Cupcakes, and white heat embossed my image. I went to town water coloring it with my SAI w.c. brush pens. My sentiment is from Stampendous and their Life Words set. A few drops of Nuvo Crystal Drops in Caribbean Ocean color, finished it off.
This is one of my very favorite cards I made this week, so I hope it made you smile. Sounds like an on and off rainy weekend, so if I am not at work, I will be creating!
