Spring Hello~



Are you here to stay? Spring's been playing a game of hide and seek the past week, tempting us one day, rain and cold the next......


Quick card this morning combining 2 different challenges:
The color challenge over at SCS : Certainly Tempting Suede
and
The Our Craft Lounge Design Team sketch of the week.


  1. Flower image is stamped twice onto ocean card stock with suede ink, cut out, a bit of turquoise sponging around the edges gives it a bit of additional color and popped up with dimensional foam.
  2. Stem was stamped in celery onto white oval. Leaves were stamped with celery ink onto celery card stock, cut out, sponged with celery ink, and popped up with dimensional foam. Second design thought: should have stamped the leaves in suede onto celery, so that may happen after I get back from a later than usual Riley walk. An easy fix! FIXED!
  3. Scraps of Linen Closet papers, still out from yesterday's box project were perfect for this challenge, were cut into rectangular shapes.
  4. Turquoise bow added to balance out the left side due to the lower right oval sentiment.

Have a wonderful Tuesday!
