Hello!!!
Our weather turned cold again...dang it!!! LOL!! I was liking the few 60 degree days we had. I can't wait for Spring!!! My card today makes me think of Spring ~ what do you think?
The layout of this card is based on this weeks sketch challenge at CPS HERE! The base of this card is Chocolate Chip with a mat of Pure Poppy (PTI) and then Basic Black and finally, a piece of DP from Sweet as Cherry Pie Webster's Pages Collection (Michelle is out of it but you can contact her to see if she will be ordering more). The strip toward the bottom is first a small strip of Poppy just under the punched border and then 2 different patterns from the same Webster's Pages Collection. The 2 metal pieces are some I got off Ebay a while ago. They are held in place using red brads. I added the Poppy butterflies to so it would appear that I followed the sketch!! LOL!!! The cherry stems & leaves are from PTI's Everyday Button Bits and were stamped using Artichoke ink. I stamped the leaves 1 more time on a seperate piece of DP, cut them out and popped them up on dimensionals. The cherries are stamped on another pattern of Webster's Pages DP. The words are already on the paper so I just trimmed it to fit my image. This piece was then matted on Chocolate Chip CS.
Here is a closer look at the paper & image ~
Can I just tell you how much I LOVE this paper?!?!? Oh my gosh, I can't wait to use it some more!
Have a great day!
