Love card

Hi there friends, I hope all is well in your world today? I am still very busy packing up our old kitchen, we have had some of our grandchildren staying also. Sorry I have got a bit behind leaving comments and posting cards lately but sometimes life just gets in the way doesn't  it!

Anyway I am back with my usual card for the latest 'Less is More' challenge again. It's a colour one this time and 'Tangerine, Aqua and White'. 

Hmm not a colour combo I have used before I think, in the end this card just...erm... evolved lol!
I used a mask for my 'sun' and my sky is an unusual shade of turquoise but.... hey ho it's my world and I like the idea of a turquoise sky ;)
 
Btw. I blended with those cheap make up soft brushes which are a whole lot cheaper than the craft ones I see for sale...bargain! (Pics soon, along with my newest best buy a magnetic board)

I offset the sentiment die so a little turquoise peeped out under the white die. Hope you approve ;)

ps. It's my birthday today ...yipeee...and I spent it at the beach, eating ice-cream, fresh strawberries and raspberries. The weather was fabulous too...so happy! I got some beautiful cards and some lovely pressies too, I am one lucky lady me thinks ;)

Also a big welcome to my latest follower, welcome aboard and thanks for following me.
 
I hope to post pics of our recent trip to Cornwall very soon...I promise! Also pics of our recent 'magical' themed family party.
 
Of course as always,....enjoy your week/weekend whatever you have planned ;)...I will be knee deep in boxes (see pics below) and appliances as our new kitchen gets underway...more soon!
