Daydreaming

I am sure daydreaming of warmer weather and spring flowers. It's only been 6 days here and I am getting serious case of cabin fever,.  How are you all in New England managing with all the snow, ice, and cold? Sure glad I don't live there.
So today, I am identifying with Newton laying in a field of flowers dreaming of sunshine.

Newton's Nook is having a challenge to make 1 layer cards. And A Blog Named Hero has a challenge of masking. So I have combined them.
I stamped Newton and the speech bubble from Newton's Day Dream on a scrap piece of paper and cut them out to mask the card where I did not want ink.Then I used a green Ink Dot and swiped over the bottom portion and a sponge with blue to do the sky. Sponging a  little yellow in the upper corner gave the sky some sunshine. Then I went back and stamped Newton. I chose not to stamp the speech bubble outline so it would look like a cloud. I colored Newton and flowers with colored pencils.
So I am right there with you Newton wishing everyone a day filled with sunshine!!!!
