Spring is in the Air for JUGS #287 Word Week

Spring is in the Air  - just not where I live.

 We are in our Autumn but that doesn't stop me from
making a card with bright cheerful colours.

Sharyn as our Hostess chose SPRING
for Word Week
and I am sure all my friends across the pond
 are looking forward to it after a

Long and Cold Winter.

Here is a close up of the butterfly which was fussy cut
after adding crystal effects and popped on top of the image
 but doesn't show the shine.

 

I also used the following items on my card -

 White & Green card stock

Designer Paper and Image - Fred She Said + the

Pre coloured image called Marigolds & Morpho

Fancy That - Leafy Swirls

Sentiment is from Gina K Designs

Just Rite Tags

Own Ribbon/Micro Beads

 

Pop over to Our Blog and check out

It's Mellow Yellow at Top Tip Tuesday

It has been a while since I played with a challenge over at

Top Tip Tuesday but the current challenge has me

playing with Mellow Yellow.

 

 

 

The Script Dies are all the rage at the moment so

of course I 'needed' them. I bought one online and it arrived

in the mail yesterday so after seeing the challenge above

I got straight into cutting that Hello die and made this cas card.

I did say on an earlier post you wouldn't see

 'feathers' on my next post

but there are those stencils that keep calling me instead.

Perfect for a simple background.

***

Here are the products that I used

Basic white and yellow card stock

Lawn Fawn Scripty Hello

(cut several and popped for depth)

TCW Mini Texture Stencil

Tim Holtz Peacock Feathers Distress Ink

Stampin' Up Yo Yo Yellow Ink

Friend Sentiment from Stampin' Up - Just Believe

Sequins.

***
#Tip If you have a word that you want to leave a
letter out cover it with washi tape ink up the word
then remove the tape before stamping on your card.

I think I will play with this colour again before the week is out

as it is so bright and colourful with so many possibilities.

 

Thanks for popping in



Sketch Time for Atlantic Hearts #101

It's time to play with Sketch Challenge #101 at

Atlantic Hearts

 

 

 

I know I have Feathers on my brain at present

and that is because a very dear friend sent me the

Four Feathers Stamp/Die from Stampin' Up

and I can't stop playing with it.

I decided to go away from flowers as I had

that set sitting close by. Love it!

***

So here goes with what I used on my card

White & Brown card stock

Stampin' Up Four Feathers Stamp/Die Set

Tim Holtz Speckles Stencil

Tim Holtz Distress Inks in

Forest Moss/Antique Linen

Memento Inks in

Morocco Potter's Clay Peanut Brittle

Jute String

Pop Dots

I sure hope you like it and thanks for dropping in.

PS My next scheduled post doesn't have Feathers hehe

but that doesn't mean there won't be

 as I may do one on the spur of the moment

after all those feathers are still floating around.
