When I saw her card, it reminded me not only of warm Summer days but of the times I spent with my grandmother sitting in Lynch Park watching the sun set over the water. There was something magical about watching the sun sink into the ocean. Every night the colors of the sky and water change. No two sunsets were alike. Some were more purple and some more pink and orange.
I highlighted a more pink and orange sunset for this card. The main colors are Flirty Flamingo, Whisper White, Peekaboo Peach, Early Espresso, and Old Olive.
I used an aquapainter on Shimmery White cardstock to watercolor the sunset scene. The sand is Crumb Cake. The water is Island Indigo and Tempting Turquoise. The sky is Peekaboo Peach, Flirty Flamingo, and Pool Party.
The inside is stamped with the border image in Old Olive ink. I made this card as a blank note card. However, a banner with a sentiment such as thank you, thinking of you, or happy retirement on the front tucked under the flowers would be really cute as well.
Thanks for stopping by!
