I LOVE Bonnie's gorgeous trio of squares. Her coloring is amazing. I used basically the same layout. Although, her squares are direct on the one layer card. I used clossy paper for my squares and cut them to fill the card. I also changed the sentiment, but kept it red.
This card is also for the Free for all challenge of letting the sun shine. Wendy asked us to make a card with the sun or something inspired by the sun.
To make these tiles, I got a 12"x12" gloss paper out and began making my background. I used yellow ochre, burnt sienna, olive pastel, dark moss and periwinkle blue. I masked the sun and added additional color with Copic RV13 and R14.
Bonnie, thank you for sharing your beautiful creations. You truly do inspire!!!
Thanks for taking a peek!

I thought I was looking at a print from one of the museum catalogs! Kathleen, this is an exceptionally artistic card! I love the layout and color treatment on the glossy paper. You did a fabulous job with this card. Love it!
