I think spring is in the air....at least here in the midwest. We have had about five wonderful days of sunshine, moderating temperatures and the sound of spring birds. I know that we will still have some cold nights and days but the majority of days should continue to reflect spring. Nichole Heady on her blog Nichole Heady.typepad.com has offered a challenge to her Design Team and other followers using different palettes of spring colors. I have chosen to include a project using her colors.
I have used the colors to create a watering can with spring blooms. My inspiration came from the cover of the March 2010 edition of Midwest Living. Although I did not have a tulip stamp, I thought that a mixture of spring flowers would do. I am including a photo of my inspiration and then my card. Truly, the them is "Celebrate Spring". Let me know what you think.
Supplies:
Cardstock: Papertrey White; Lavender Moon; Spring Moss; Lemon Tart; Hibiscus Pink; Spring Rain
Patterned Papers: Egg Hunt
Ink: Papertrey Hibiscus Pink; Spring Moss; Dark Chocolate
Ribbon: Papertrey Ink Plum Pudding
Stamps: Green Thumb; Honey Bee
Melon Wire, Crystals and Pearls from my stash
