Seize the Birthday Challenge - Make a Sunset Scene

I started by sponging a card panel with muted sun rays and whoa -- it went in the trash - fast! [To ugly to show you to be honest] So, I started again, and this one worked!

You just really can't go wrong when using dies! 😀  I have had this Altenew's Abstract Landscape Cover for awhile - so glad I finally used it!

Yes, unfortunately, I needed a belated birthday card [Simon Says Sentiment Strips].  I was on a roll getting my birthday cards in the mail on time..... sigh.

Your turn!  Come on over to the Seize the Birthday Challenge and play along!  The gallery should be really pretty.



Thanks for stopping by~

What a wonderful card you made with that landscape die. I had considered buying it too but resisted. I might have to rethink that now.

This is gorgeous, those colours are stunning together and enhanced by the black contrast. So glad that you have now used that gorgeous die xx

This card reminds me of a Southwest desert painting by Georgia O'Keeffe. Nice job!
