Good morning to you all in the land of blog
Today brings the next challenge at the
with the very talented Tracie choosing the theme of
Shape Up For Spring
This week we are sponsored by two fabulous sponsors
The first
Crafter's Companion offering a £10 voucher to one lucky winner
The second
Lily Of The Valley offering a £10 voucher to another lucky winner
So here is my design team inspirational piece but don't forget to hop on over to the main challenge site, to see the rest of the gorgeous creations by the team
I went with a Grand Nestie and the biggest of the lot in the scallop to make my base card, I then airbrushed this with Y08 for a soft distressed look. I then used the smaller plain circle grand nesties for the layers. I got to use my new Tim Holtz clock die as I though that it perfectly fitted my sentiment and used this as the surround for my spring flowers. Little pearls from the Hobby House and little tiles from stash. The papers are Papermania Capsule Collection Mono in the Yellows and a mint green card is the contrast.
The image is of course a Penny Black available at Grimsby Crafts, here is a close up of the copic coloured image which has the softened airbrushed edges with a little fine glitter too
Hedgie is such a cutie isn't he :)
Here is a close up of those lovely Spring looking flowers, a mixture of Wild Orchid Crafts, Hobby Craft and the local cheap shop. The green fronds are also from the cheap shop, will be getting some more of these.

My Easter card is such an attention seeker,isn't it? It just had to sneak itself onto your lovely blog.(LOL)
Thank you sooooo much for that. It is a 5 star spot for it. I hope you do not charge for that(LOL). You are a sweetheart! I could not have woken up to a better thing to be honest.
I have to say I adore your spring card. You do yellow colour so well. I love all the elements you used especially your new Tim Holtz clock die.
