Spring Card

Hello Everybody!

Spring is in the air-and maybe on your car and sidewalks.  ;)  But there isn't any pollen on this card-just a beautiful tree with flowers!

Today it is my turn to post a project over at Unique Laser Designs.  This tree started off bare.  So I added some flower soft to create the look of flower buds on tree.

And here is my card.  I used paper from Echo Park, Pink Paisley, and white card stock.  I also used some light modeling paste and a stencil from Dylusions for the left side and bottom corner.  The ribbon was in my stash.  I have had it so long that they used to be called fibers and were all the rage.  (LOL!)  :)

This is flower soft.  It is sort of like pretty colored pencil eraser shavings.  It comes in different colors and blends.  This one is Soft Pea.

I am linking this card up to 613 Avenue Create Challenge: Anything Goes Twist-Spring.

Here is a side view of my card.  Love this tree! :)

Thank you for stopping by!  Until next time my friends...Happy Spring!

Happy Easter!

Hello Everybody!

I hope this day finds you well and at peace.  It is a beautiful day and, we are enjoying our family!

I wanted to share with you a couple of more Easter cards!

This card is sprayed with the October Afternoon spray that I got in my Random Acts of Kindness (I love this spray!)  I stamped on the doily directly.  I colored it with my Copics and used some Flower Soft to make the grass.  I wish I could say that the grass under my little egg was completely my idea...but it wasn't.  I saw it in the March 2012 issue of Cardmaker Magazine-with a different egg.  I thought that's brilliant!

Here's a close up of the little chick and grass.  The stamp is Sparkle N Sprinkle.  I used a fine sage Flower Soft and then a baby green (I think).

Here's my next card with the Sparkle N Sprinkle bunny stamp and a G Studio sentiment.  And a little twine if you please! :)

I used that fantastic spray again here and added stickers :)

Easter also means that Lent is over.  I can now buy scrapbooking supplies!  (Much to my husband's dismay!  Haha!)  But I cannot go out tomorrow and break the bank.  In May there is the Scrapbook Expo, and I have to try to save for that.  But at least if I see something or need some adhesive or cards I can get them.  And it makes going to garage sales more fun! :)

Hope you have a Blessed day!  Until next time my friends...Have a beautiful day!

Tidbit Tuesday

Hello Everybody!

This is the last Tidbit Tuesday for 2011.  How crazy is that?  Well that's ok because I know there will be plenty of projects and tidbits for 2012.

I made 2 cards last night so the creative juices have slowed down and need to be recharged! 

I hope everybody had a great Christmas!  I did!  I got so many great scrappy things from my husband, sister, and mom-in-law.  I can't list them all out because I have spread them out and started to dissolve them into my collection :) 

So you guys will see new stuff for sure!  I am going to show you this awesome Flower Soft kit that my mom-in-law got for me.

Look!  It's 7 different Flower Soft mixtures.  Too cool!  I have yellow.  So this is awesome!  And she got me cards so that I can play with it.  And the glue too!

Here is a close up of the flower soft colors.  The website is http://www.flower-soft.com/ if you want to go check 'em out.  So I will practice with these and for sure show you what I come up with!

Until next time my friends...learn a new technique!  I am!  :)
