well I decided that a life of white needed to have a sunset to brighten it up.... I made sure that it was a sunset rather then a sun rise -- so as not to be to overwhelm Abner .... I hope he likes this splash of colour

Good thinking on making that a sunset. It would have blinded Abner for sure coming up and him not used to it. Your card is beautiful!

Hi Kim! There you are! So sorry I was so late in greeting you! I had a little issue with my last run! Giggle! Your card is wonderful....it just pops against the stark white! I think Abner most definately will love this splash of color....its beautifully done!

Kim, this is a most lovely scene! Sunset. Beautiful! I love the depth you have given this with the blooms in the fore ground. Just gorgeous!

I was wondering if you were going to make it to the tea party, crazykim!! I'm so glad you did!
I LOVE your gorgeous sunset!! I know how a beautiful sunset can evoke a sense of peace within and I'm sure your gorgeous one is sure to soothe the savage beast in Abner! Did you use a brayer? I so have issues with brayers.

Beautiful - I love those colors. Reminds me of sunsets in NM (I lived there 17 years). I am sure Abner will love this!

Oh Kimmie - this is so lovely. So many of the brayer or sponged backgrounds just use black for the stamped images - I love that you used muted colors like you would really see at sun set. You are such a talented girl (but I have known that for years)!
