Just look at this... lovely day, fabulous weather !
On to my card for today!
Wow, this card had me thinking. Masking. Stamping. Not really my forte, but I love the end result!
The heart stamp is one of the first ever stamps I bought (manufacturer unknown) , stamped with Versafine Onyx black. Sponging done with Tim Holtz distress ink ( victorian velvet & milled lavender)
Sentiment from Casual fridays set : Loving thoughts.
I accidentally stumbled upon a stationary/printing shop that sells "perfect colouring paper". Really, that is what is called ! I bought a pack, and I will definitely go back for more. It has a super smooth surface and it made the sponging very easy. It is on the expensive side (for me it is ) and for that reason ( and because this was the

Wow such fabulous pictures Hannelie and what blue sky! Your card is fantastic too and I think you should do more stamping as it's too good not to. Love your colouring and layout too.
Thanks so much for sharing and taking part.

Lovely card...so sweet. And that airshow...just amazing photos and the weather looks so beautiful.
Wow! This is gorgeous! One layer? Sure did fool me! Great job creating some awfully fine depth! Love the colors and adore this heart! It has a bit of a vintage feel to it. The black enamel dots make it look like a necklace!
Whoops - forgot to add - cool airshow pics! (I couldn't drive my van through those pillars, never mind a plane going a kazillion miles per hour!
Wat een bijzondere, mooie én elegante CAS-kaart! Echt een waar je wat langer naar blijft kijken... Mooie foto's, lijkt me gevaarlijk wat zij doen? Groetjes, Gerrina

Joe, mal oor jou foto's van die lugskou!!! Kan net dink hoe julle dit moes geniet het!!!!!
Jou kaartjie is pragtig!!! Mal oor die slim manier wat jy die kleure gedoen het!!!! Die blommetjies lyk so mooi met die glans en die ry perels is so perfek geplaas met net die enetjie aan die onderkant - hou daarvan so!! Die sentiment is so pragtig!!! Ek hou van die skuins lyn waarmee jy alles gedoen het!!! Alweer 'n treffer, vrou!!!
Groete

I can remember watching the Blue Angels when I was little and lived on the Air Force base with my folks. It was always a treat to see the jets. These planes are sooo cool! Awesome photos. This card. Oh my goodness! Soft and suble. Perfect shade of pink. The heart stamp is lovely. Really like how you've split the heart along your panels. Just love this! Bev
Hannelie, your card is very eyecatching! I love the way you've added color...looks like it might have been a bit difficult...but the results are stunning!
Oh my goodness...I absolutely LOVE this card. Your layout is wonderful and your card is so balanced...great job!
