Hi there!
I made this card for the latest challenge at JustRite, Challenge #093 - Suddenly Spring!
This is my first time using the Violette Vintage Labels Stamps, they are so pretty and fun to color! I decide on purples and yellows for colors and colored them with pencils and mineral spirits. I also added some Buttercup Liquid Pearls to the flower centers and the strips in the background of the stamp. The sentiment is cut and popped on the main image.
The dies behind the image are from brand new toys I just got in the mail Saturday called Timeless Rectangles from Spellbinders. I LOVE the lacy look of the outside edges...just gorgeous and fun to layer with!
Card Recipe:
Stamp: Violette Vintage Labels (JustRite)
Paper: Solar White, Natural Whtie (Neenah), So Saffron (SU), The Chateau Lavender Stack (DCWV)
Ink: Onyx Black (VersaFine)
Accessories: Buttercup Liquid Pearls (Ranger), White Silk Ribbon (May Arts), adhesive pearls, Bow-Easy, mineral spirits, Vintage Label & Banner Dies (JustRite), Timeless Rectangles (Spellbinders), Prismacolor Pencils: Olive Green, Kelp Green, Eggshell, Yellow Ochre, Parma Violet, Violet, Dioxazine Purple Hue, Lavender
Along with our spring inspired creation, we are to say what spring means to us. For me, now living is Southern California, it's almost hard to tell when it's spring! After growing up in Boston and living in New Hampshire for many years, I'm still in awe of how beautiful the weather is here. We do have some trees that kind of went dormant for the "winter" and are now full bloom. I love the yellowy green of when they are first blooming! Other than that though, it's hard to tell!
I'm submitting this to the following challenges:
JustRite Chalenge JRC093 - Suddenly Spring
Simon Says Stamp - Anything Goes
Word Art Wednesday Challenge #73 - Anything Goes
Thank you for stopping by today!
Blessings!
Kathy

Another gorgeous card, Kathy! I love the purple and yellow combination, and those soft delicate die-cuts are just perfect. You deserved your win on the last challenge at JustRite, and I wouldn't be surprised if you won again! I'm not even throwing my hat in the ring this time for the random draw. I concede! LOL
ReplyDeleteI'm SUPER excited to showcase your card on WAW this Wednesday for your GDT spot, and wanted to let you know that your smiling face is now posted on our blog for the month.
