Hey if you any of you cool kids want to have some fun you may want to head over to Johanna's blog (that's Johanna of justjohanna Rubber Stamps!) where she has posted a challenge to create something with a FREE FREE FREE high resolution image she posted. You can use it for scrapbooking or a card background or what have you. I, of course, defined a "what have you" category because that's where I fell. I used it in one of my art journal pages that I'm submitting for one of my justjohanna Design Team projects.
Just looking at the color saturation of Johanna's image made me feel warm like I was sitting out in the sunshine. This is actually version #2 of this page. The first one I made just felt too busy. I decided to redo it, making it much more simpler and allowing the words the happy sun shiny words to do their thing and shine! I added the justjohanna Eiffel Tower stamp (I've been good -- I haven't used this in a LONG time - one of my absolute fav stamps ever) and some K &Co rubons.
Okay...go have yourself a happy day and hope there's some sunshine in it!
LOL! I think you are addicted to that Eiffel Tower. I think I'm going to make an arc de triomphe for us too.
