New Beginnings |
This design emerged. The image again, heat embossed in white onto black CS, also creating a black mat around the inked panel. An extra seagull and some washi, all on a kraft cardbase.
"Morning has broken", Cat Stevens, remember? I'm playing with Simon Says Stamps Monday Challenge to be inspired by a song. We in MI have this saying "Red sky at night, sailor's delight, red sky in the morning, sailor take warning." Being on Lake Huron (facing the East), a sunrise like this doesn't always mean good things to come, but it sure is purty.
I hope you've enjoyed this. The DT has created some great cards this week. You can check them out here.
I'm hooking up at Kathy R.'s 30 Day Coloring Challenge.

So striking! Love the colour blending, and the geometric diecut panel works so well with the lines of the image. Clever!
Dynamic bold card. Great choice of colors and layout.
Simply stunning colours and thanks for joining us at Penny Black & More this month, Luv Sam x
This is absolutely GORGEOUS! I just plain stared at it for awhile before reading a word! And then when I read your post, I loved it even more! Cat Stevens was a great inspiration choice and I love his music. I also had to laugh about the sailor's warning associated with a red sky at night because you're right: it may be ominous for sailing folk, but wow! I cannot get enough of this masterpiece! You did an outstanding job of blending the colors and I love the focal red in the center. Beautiful work and thank you so much for sharing this with us for our Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!
Thanks for joining Penny Black & More @ Allsorts challenge with this great entry, good luck.
Happy crafting
