Thinking of Spring

Today I am dreaming of Spring. The beautiful sun has been shining all day. A rare treat for February in the Walla Walla Valley. This card just screams spring to me. I can't wait for the warm weather and all the beautiful flowers to bloom.




To create these flowers, I used a Blender Pen to achieve a "watercolor" effect. I highlighted the detail with a Strawberry Slush marker. The edges of the flower were curled using a Bone Folder. The layers were put together with Dimensionals.

Cardstock ~ Smoky Slate, Whisper White

Ink ~ Crisp Cantaloupe, Daffodil Delight, Strawberry Slush, Lucky Limeade, Black StazOn
Stamp Sets ~ Happy Watercolor, Teeny Tiny Wishes
Tools ~ Paper Trimmer, Paper Snips, Window Label punch, Dimensionals, Blender Pen
