TESC155 - Thinking of You!

Happy Spring! Wow! I can't believe Spring is already here! It's been gorgeous outside the last couple of days so I knew I had to create a card using fun Spring colors for this week's challenge. The perfect set to coordinate with Spring is TE's beautiful Friendship Blooms set.  I love all the different pretty flower combinations you can create with this set.  I paired this set up with the Thinking of You sentiment from another great spring set Garden Party Critters.  To create the main image I stamped the stem & leaves portion with green chalk ink and stamped the flowers with a lavender chalk ink.  I added some clear gems to the centers for sparkle.  I really enjoyed the simple stamping and the card came together so quickly.

Happy St. Paddy's Day!

Hello Friends!!! Happy St. Paddy's Day!  I couldn't wait to share with you this fun Lawn Fawn card.  I created my little Leprechaun using the face and body portion of the Gnome from the Gnome Sweet Gnome set and added the hat from the Hats Off to You set.  I really love the new Bright Side Collection of papers and the 2 green patterned papers coordinated perfectly for this St. Paddy's Day card.  This little Gnome is just a perfect image to create lots of other characters.  He's just so cute and fun!  Hope you all have a fab day today and be sure to sport your green!



Have a great day and thanks for visiting!

Hello Friends! It's time for another wonderful Taylored Expressions Sketch Challenge! Hope you all have been having a great week and are ready to kick off your weekend by playing along with us.  I love this week's fun sketch and since Spring is so close I decided to use the adorable Garden Party Critters set for this week's sketch.  I paired up the set with some pretty papers from Echo Park's This & That collection.  I colored with butterflies with Copics and added Stardust Stickles for sparkle.  A fun and girly Birthday card ready for my stash.
