Hey, Sunshine!! That's the name of Carla's (uvgotcarla) "Clean And Simple" Challenge for today. Her challenge is to create a card using some kind of sun element in the design. What a perfect challenge, Carla, for this time of the year!!
To create my card, I used white card stock to cut out the Sunburst Background Die. I laid the die over the sunburst cutout and used a fantastic Clarity Stencil Brush to brush on the two inks. (The Clarity Stencil Brushes are remarkable.)
I cut out a fence using a wood-grain DSP, green grass, green stems, and various colors of flowers. I assembled them and attached to the bottom of the sunburst. I created a digital sentiment that was cutout with a die and attached to the card front slightly over the sun.
TFL and your comments are greatly appreciated,
Bev

This is truly a happy, cheerful card in every way. This sun die is just terrific and I love how you colored it. I do not believe I have seen a field of flowers like this paired with a sun die before and the effect is truly striking! Love it! ~Karen.
