What a breath of Fresh air to join in this Challenge! What
does Spring mean to you...Flowers Blooming? Children Playing?
Gardening? Easter? Spring Break? St Patricks Day? just playing outside? Well at Squiggle Fly they wanted us to show
them some bright and beautiful springtime cheer items and I'm sharing
mine with you using a Cheryl Alger digi and a great sketch from Mojo
Monday Sketches http://mojomonday.com/Sketches/Mojo229Sketch.gif The key with this card is layers, layers, layers.
This
large card starts with green cardstock, has 5 panels of spring
striped/flowered paper under a pink/green plaid paper from DAISYD's
offset onto pink cardstock. I tied a soft pink satin ribbon on the end
of that then elevated an embossed and glittered swirly flower cardstock
from DAISYD's on top of the plaid. Then the icing on on the top is the
elevated digi colored with copics and baby pearls to look like
raindrops. The inside is finished with the striped paper and a large
label die cut for personal sentiments.
I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
Squiggle Fly Challenge #8--Spring with ribbon
Ladybug Crafts Ink TLT Challenge--Pink & Girly
Scrapbook Place Blog Challenge--Spring, DT entry
I
hope you will still remember that there is a Leap Day Blog Hop at
Scrapbook Place with the hosts SBP giving blog candy away as well as
some of the ladies participating-just click the link above and join in
the fun! Be sure to leave some love!
Beautiful card, Carolyn! I love your bows. Any secrets on making them?
ReplyDeleteYou're hilarious--I say "saying a few choice words" is the trick. I saw a video somewhere-maybe on splitcoast-showing making the perfect bow between 2 "pegs" and it was all in the way they looped and brought around the tail. I keep thinking I'm going to get out the hammer and nails and get me that 2 peg idea! When they got it done, it was just like the ones in store packages. Really, Thanks for the compliment but I just kept messing with it until I got it right.
Deletewow fabulous and beautiful card.
