Hello …. bonjour! Hope your week’s been a sunshiny one! We’re about half way through our ‘Inspired by Words’ challenge at Time Out … ‘Wherever you go, no matter the weather, always bring your own sunshine’, and I’m popping in with another sun filled card. If your week’s been lacking in enough warm yellow rays (of all kinds), help yourself to some here …
A white card panel, sponged with a sunny halo of Squeezed Lemonade and Mustard Seed Distress Inks, cut with a Winnie & Walter die, and stamped with a supplementary sentiment from Avery Elle. It was sprinkled with water and blotted, I added white, platinum and silver splatters, and sprayed the whole thing with a drift of shimmer spray. The inner portions of the letters were adhered flat to the card base and the panel was popped up on foam tape. How would you like a glance at all that gentle shimmer …
Have you been inspired by this delicious phrase yet? You can use any or all of the words as a jumping off point for your creativity … and we’d love to see you in the gallery! All the details are over at the Time Out blog, along with creative cards galore from our fabulous DT and our super talented Guest Designer, Sue from Foleys Friend … hope to see you there!
I’m playing along at …

Love your card. Karen x
Oh yes, this says sunshine for sure, great design and the added sparkles and splatters just perfect x
Now that’s a happy coincidence I’m working on a bunch of sunshine themed cards for Simon’s classmates. Your cards rocks BTW !!!
That is a typical ‘pick me up’ Anita-style card – fabulous, cheer-filled, and darling! xx

Lovely and sunny, Anita! We are lacking in yellow sunny rays here, our “great British summer” has been somewhat damp and cool so far.
What a lovely, sunshiny card, Anita! I really like that hello die shape, the sunshiney yellow and those shimmery shimmers. It all comes together to make such a happy card!! 🙂
Beautiful halo effect, Anita! Truly delicious ❤️ Those splatters are gorgeous, too, along with the shimmer! Love this 😊😘 bisous and hugs, mon Amie !
Love this card Anita! Great sunny color and beautiful shimmer! Thanks for playing with Just Us Girls!
Your sunshiny, shimmery, glimmery card is such a lovely Hello; smiles guaranteed (based on the bright one I’m wearing in seeing this gem). Gorgeous!!
Hugs~c
So simple but of so happy and pretty – I love the shine!
Once again, you were right (does that ever get old?), this card has my name written all over it, yellow being a strong feature. Even if it is extra warm (it’s in the 100’s, here) it makes me smile. Love the shimmery, citrus-y, happy goodness reaching out and encompassing my soul. Thank you for sharing because it made my day, my friend
another fabulous clean and simple design, anita!!
Love how you added a burst of sunshine to this card, Anita! Such a great idea to use the negative on this word die, and your splatters are the perfect touch! I’m sure this beauty will bring a ray of sunshine to the lucky recipient 🙂
So cheery, love the bright sunshiny color and shimmer! A card that’s sure to bring a smile!
Oh Anita, this is such a lovely bright shiney and happy card! I love it, super smart design.

This is so fun!! I LOVE the negative die cutting with that fabulous ink blending on the front. So happy!
This card is hot, hot, hot Anita! I can feel the hot sun beating down on me. lol I love this card Anita, it is so bright and fun! Who doesn’t love sunshine and we have been having some great sunshine here in my neck of the world. Your splatters are in the perfect colors, love how they look and I love the way you did your sentiments. Looks like I need to CAS this card for Bret when he goes back to school. Hugs, Brenda

You can’t beat a splash of happy yellow Anita – the splashes shimmer are such a gorgeous touch!
Your card is a pure delight with all that shimmer and those splatters and the sunny color! Thank you for sending us all some sunshine through the world wide web! I adore that phrase and would love to play but I have almost no time to create right now (and I’m not happy about that)!
Hope you are enjoying your weekend,
Susanne

Gorgeous bright, happy card! Love the soft shimmer & splatters!
This is so bright and cheerful, Anita. It’s sure to perk up anyone receiving it.
Fabulous!
I’d been doing good for about a week with buying no dies! Then I see this one (and how you’ve used it!) and my resolve is weakening. Love this sunny hello cutaway, so very CAS but loads of impact with the vivid yellow and spatters. So cheering. TFS & Hugs
You know how I love yellow, so you need to hear that i LOVE this happy hello card in … yellow!
oh yes… and that shimmer!!!
Could have sworn that I had left a comment already…. love this sunny, delightful little work of art!
Just fabulous!
Thank you for sharing with Happy Little Stampers!
