Spring Day

Spring is finally here. At least it will be after a short chill we had here in Pennsylvania.  Time for Sassy Studio Designs' last Sponsorship Challenge of April.  This time it's over at Incy Wincy Designs.  The theme is "Spring/Green".  After this month's Release/Hop at Sassy Studio Designs, I knew I had to use the new "Day at the Park" image.

I created a Z-fold card for something different this time.

Bailey Bunny

Do you know who the Easter Bunny's newest helper is?  It's Bailey at Hambo Stamps.  And he made this week's challenge at the Hambo Hoedown (here) to use "weaving" on your project.  If you play along and use a Hambo stamp on your project, you get the next week's image FREE.

Card stock-Prints for the Year Ultimate Stack

Faux stiching-Gelly roll white gel pen

I cut 1/4" strips of the DP and wove them to create the background.  I also used my Fiskars corrugater to create the woven design on the 2 yellow strips.  I popped up Bailey on homemade foam squares. I used one of the sentiments that came with Bailey on the inside. And put a small Bailey bunny inside also.

The layout is based on Split Coast Stampers Wed card sketch #429

Well if Bailey wants to get all those bones dyed in time for Easter, he better get hoppin'.

Happy Easter.

Welcome Spring

I thought Spring was here for the year, but it was postponed yesterday after we got 5" of snow. It didn't bother me because I like plowing the lots at the office complex where my sister and mom work. But I still wanted to make a Spring card for the Some Odd Girl March challenge. See it here.  This month's sketch was:

When Some Odd Girl http://www.someoddgirlblog.com/ has new stamps come out, if you comment on the posts, you can win one of the new images.  That is how I acquired the "Watering Can Tia" image.  I won it! I love all their images.  They are great to color and so expressive. So here is my card.

I popped up Tia on homemade foam squares.  And then popped up the sentiment banner more.

Well the snow is melting and I hate when it's all messy. But Sunday is Easter and I think Spring will stick around this time.  Then before we know it, the temperatures will be in the 90's and we'll be back in the house and the air conditioning. hahaha
