This is very atmospheric Christine and I love the colours and the soft way you have the sun coming through, and the bare tree and thistles in the foreground work beautifully. x

This might be my favorite card of yours. I love the blend of colors, the soft look of clouds and the sun just peeking through. Two gorgeous stamps too.

It's a lovely scene that you've created with the warm brayered colours, Christine. Love the glitter of the sun. xx

Brilliant graphics!!! This sky looks so realistic! I love hazy colors and adding white streaks really creates tiny clouds. It's amazing what you've created!

So pretty. I love the tree. I stocked up for Christmas with a Gelli plate, paints and a brayer. Ready to roll!

Christine, this is beautiful! The sky is amazing. I've been looking at the pan pastels lately. You even inspired me to watch a gel plate video because you've used the technique beautifully so many times. Also, I know how amazing this coated cardstock is for backgrounds and solid stamping (because you sent some to me, thank you!). Do you have a link for it? Thanks!

Awesome summer card. Great job brayering the background for these cool silhouette stamps.

Amazing summer scene you created, Christine! Love the background sky - the brayered beautiful colors, the soft look of clouds, and the stunning sun with glittering light. I can feel the warm wind coming through the branches.
