Spring Smile

Hello , welcome to my room . Hope that you and yours are going to have just the best weekend .
I managed to create a card today for a challenge " Spring" theme for craftysentiments

Now I figured that Spring is like Autumn , an  in between season . Sometimes bright and sunny , sometimes cool not so warm . That's where I drew my inspiration from . The season of Spring itself .

The card base of Very Vanila and the first layer of Crumb Cake represent the mildness of Spring . In contrast,  the yellow dotty designer series paper from the Brights Collection , the bright Melon Mambo and the Whisper White are the hint of the warmth of coming Summer. The jug of flowers is  from the set A Flower For All Seasons. The sentiment is from set Fabulous Phrases. The little daisys at the bottom are from Hero Arts. I embossed the first layer to add texture and added jute to tie the elements together.
hope that you found this card to be worth a visit to my blog . Thank you for calling in .
 Am entering this in the http://craftysentiments.blogspot.com/2011/02/spring.html challenge.

Catch you again soon , cheers for now Shirley-Anne.

Just for you Tag

Hello to you and you and even to you , who have visited often but not left a comment so that I can call on you too. I'd really love for you to let me know of your blog . I do so want to check out your style .
Welcome to my room , where I share my simple creations .
Todays card ..was inspired by  SU

Recipe

Marina Mist, Poppy Parade, Naturals Ivory, Whisper White   and scraps of DSP

Sets, Elements of Style , Teeny Tiny Sentiments and All a Flutter and En Francais.

Inks, Basic Grey , Poppy Parade

1 !/4" circle punch , Sizzix Big Shot Die Tags

Flower Rhinestones

I cut the Whisper White card just a little smaller than the Poppy Parade piece so I had a nice border and before adhering it , I added 3 even strips  of DSP . I could have just placed the strips onto Poppy Parade but this way seems , to me , to have a neater finish and gives a little " body" to the layer.

I added the decorated tag with foam tape

Hope you like the card .

Catch you a bit later , cheers for now , Shirley-Anne.
