Congratulations Diana!!!
Your Easter project was really~really cute and very original. I bet that your DD loved it ;-)
Please -->email me<-- your mail addy so I can send you the candy :-)
Now this week's challenge from SWF is to make something using 3 papers, 3 flowers and 2 buttons... so here's my take:
It's a Spring card!
And these papers are so cute... they are Quite Contrary from My Mind's Eye. Of course, I colored my image with Distress Inks ;-)
And here's another trick I want to show you:
See the paper flowers?
They are Crepe Paper that I cut using my Sizzix. But the fun part was that, with a couple of drops of Distress Inks and some water mixed in a spray bottle, I sprinkled the Crepe Paper adding a nice, vintage effect to the flowers. Pretty cool, ha?
And here's how my card looks when opened... I still have to finish it though:
Now drop by Stamp With Fun to see what the rest of the DT did this time ;-)
Happy Stamping!
