Wish I was here!

 


Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and Colleen wants us to make a sunset.
Mine's not perfect but I'd like to be there lol!



You can always play along with our anything goes birthday option too, if you're not in the mood for a sunset.
Our party guest Carol and my team mates have some wonderful inspiration for you,
 so hope to see you in the gallery.

I diecut a circle in some copy paper and used that as a template to blend distress oxide inks in sunset colours.
I love silhouettes and these palm trees take me off to a lovely restful place!

I'm linking up to these challenges:

Allsorts, anything goes option


Supplies:
Distress oxide inks; palm tree die brand unknown; Spellbinders circle die and Crafts 4 U stitched rectangle die; Happy Little Stampers mix mash sentiment; versafine clair nocturne ink & clear ep.

Thanks for visiting,
Cathy x
