On a Sunny Day :)

    Hi! Hope you all had a great weekend! :) Last week, my husband returned home from work with a great news. He had holidays on Wednesday n Thursday n said he could work from home on Friday, so that we could get a 5 day vacation :) So we went to my parents' place. We clicked so many pics on our way n had a great time at home :) Will try to share some good ones if possible.

    Now, coming to the cards. I thought I would complete all the 7 challenges @365 Cards  last week. But with our unexpected vacation, I was just happy looking at the other participants'cards.

   After returning home, I just couldn't make up my mind about which challenge I should work on. Finally I decided on Day 207-Super Sketchy Sunday and came up with this.



   I had no idea I was going to make a monochromatic card till I started. I used two shades of yellow here. For the border n candles, I used handmade paper Quilling strips. I cut the shape of cake from coloured papers and layered them. For the confetti, I shaped the Quilling strips into Spirals and glued them to the card. Finally I attached the handwritten sentiment and a star made with craft foam to the top right.

    I'm happy with the Sunny effect I've created in the card with the limited supplies I've got. Isn't it apt for the Sunday challenge?

    I'm submitting this card for the following challenges.

 Hope you liked the card. Please leave your comments, your feedback means a lot :)
