A good friend has had some not so good luck lately. Her computer was hacked and the hacker somehow got to her bank account and it has been quite horrible for her. She’s finally got that mess straightened out but she’s had some other ups and downs lately. She’s shared a lot of those woes with me and I’ve tried to give her encouraging pep talks. The sentiment is from a small set in the Premium portion of the February 2024 Hero Arts My Monthly Hero kit. The Sunshine stencil is also from the Premium kit. I centered the sentiment on the card and blended Wild Dandelion in the center and outlined with a bit of Sweet Mango, then more Wild Dandelion. After removing the stencil I blended the remaining Wild Dandelion that was on my brush over the whole panel to tone down the bright white. The cloud sentiments were stamped in Stormy Sky, fussy cut and popped up with dimensionals. Both the focal panel and mat were cut with dies from Master Layouts 2. The inside sentiment and the sunrays are from Hello Sunshine, a Simon Says Stamp kit from August 2020.
I’m going to enter this in the Word Power challenge for March.
