The die is one of my new Paper Rose Studio Dies and the backgrounds are a water coloured panel and a gelli plate background.
I will send this card to Angie - this week's recipient - and another card from my collection for her daughter Sara - one with fairies, shades of pink, glitter and sparkles.
I will put the cards in the mail in the next few days - once this horrid heat wave cools off and I am brave enough to venture out again.
Hopefully that was thunder that I just heard - keep your fingers crossed we get some rain to cool the place down and revive the garden.
Hope you enjoy.

Helen this is lovely...that yellow, sunny bg is wonderful for your horse and rider. I love the little chicks and hens...so cute! I hope you get some relief for your heat...Sometimes I don't feel like leaving the house either this time of year but it's for the opposite reason (below zero temps)...

We had that kind of summer here last year. My flowers were NOT happy! But ight now we’re wondering how much snow we’re going to get on Sunday. Love this fab die cut and the cheerful colors you used! Awesome card!

Yes - I was reading about the heatwave! Not fun. We were thinking of my BIL, who lives in Sydney, no aircon in the house. I hope it cools down a little for you soon - but the bright sunshine and warmth on this will be great cheer for Angie. That's a fab die!

Wonderful colour and light in the bg for this fabulous scene using these terrific dies, Helen! I can see I need to purchase a few more, love that we have an Aussie company creating these dies! A welcome relief here today from the immense heat~

Gorgeous BG with the water color and gelli plate. I have only used my gelli plate once and really need to use it more. It can create some of the most amazing cards. This is a terrific card for the Great Outdoors. Thank you so much for playing along.

This is so charming and delightful and totally reminds me of my childhood riding a horse. And we had 6,000 chickens too! Your water color bg is gorgeous and truly sets the stage for this wonderful sun shiny scene that will absolutely be appreciated by Walt and Cheryl! ~Karen.
