So, not only was I inspired by Spring for this card, a few card challenges helped inspire and shape my creation as well.
This weeks Pals Paper Arts #322 Sketch Challenge, inspired my layout.....
..... and this weeks Case this Card #007 challenge inspired the stamp set / flowers used......
.... plus I added "G"reen / "G"reenery to my card to give it that little something extra, so it fits in with this weeks Just Add Ink #333 Just Add...G challenge.
Here is what I created:
The colours used in my card are Daffodil Delight, Whisper White & Emerald Envy.
Initially I was going to use the same stamp set from the Case this Card challenge - Flower Patch, but in the end, instead of stamping the flowers and then cutting them out with the co-ordinating framelits, I decided to just use the framelits and coloured cardstock.
My background splatters come from the Gorgeous Grunge set and my sentiment is from Jar of Love.
The Daffodil Delight ribbon I have used is currently on sale at 60% off, so it is only $4.20 for over 9 metres of ribbon (BARGAIN!). Grab yours now from the Clearance rack before stocks run out.
A bright cheerful card inspired by Spring. Hope you like it :)

I like you speckled back ground - it's a lovely way to accent the white space. Chantell JAI
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Chantell. I too love the splattered background, I think it really added to the statement of my card - it was just too plain without it :)
DeleteYour choice of color is perfect and helps keep the thought of yellow sunshine in my mind as we approach winter. Love the card! Thank you for joining the Pals Paper Arts challenge!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Maggie. I too find yellow a cheerful colour and it always helps put a smile on my face on glum overcast days :)

ReplyDeleteThanks so much Satomi. Glad I inspired you to use these lovely framelits again. Before this card, I too hadn't used my framelits for some time :)
