driving to the sun!

My mom gets really tired and a bit depressed of the rain here in the Netherlands. Hope this card cheers her up! Driving to the sun in vacation mood!
The sun background is watercolour. I chose this shape card because it reminds me a bit of a postage stamp.

bee happy!

Bee happy! The background i made myself by cutting out a template with my cutting machine. Then used it as a stencil with water paint. (i was in doubt if that was possible. I do not have distress ink, but i am very happy that water paint works just as good!) Did some embossnig on this card. They text stamps are from "ourcraftlounge" and i think the bee is a "penny black" bee.
