Cat has chosen, and I LOved, Anita's card for Time Out ... well what's not to love about this beauty:
No time like the present is what I say! So after a fun little chat on the telephone, we set a time and got to work!
Since I am rubbish at sponging, and have none of these wonderful spritzes Anita used, I have taken a different path ... Anita, nor Cat will be surprised by that, I'm sure.
A bit of that Kaisercraft Shine Bright patterned paper for the 'spritz', a MFT sunshine die, and another perfect way to say hello, compliments of Winnie & Walter, cut from a bit of linen-textured paper a la Anita:
Look! I even found a few glittery dots to add to the mix!
It is always such fun to see where the original will take us Playing Cards. Cat, I'm dashing over to see how you were inspired ... thank you for the challenge today ... it was perfect timing and SO much fun chatting!!! xoxo

I'm sending this over to Time Out challenge #61 - inspired by words [and friends]:
"Wherever you go, no matter what the weather, always bring your own sunshine"

Wonderful card Michele, I love your design. The colours are wonderful as is the die cut sun.
Absolutely gorgeous, Michele! Beautiful colours. I can clearly see Anita's influence, but you've made your card in your own amazing way.

Oh goodness, Michele ... you've CASED my card with such style, panache and pizazz ... love that delicious yellow/grey/black colour combo with the bubbles of lovely words ... and that die cut in crisp white ... so delicious! Thank you so much for honouring me with such a wonderful CASE, mon amie ... and also for your lovely thoughts for France following the Nice atrocity. Big hugs, my friend, Anita :)
Gosh, where are my manners, Michele ... delighted to have you playing along with us at Time Out! Hugs (again!), Anita :)
This one is so fun, I love all the circles and the color scheme too!
These are both wonderful cards!! I hate to sound ahem, silly, but what do you mean when you say you're "playing cards"? I've never heard that before...
