Spring purse card ready for Easter




I am still coloring flowers trying to get in the spring mood here. I had some purse cards setting around and I decided to use them as my card base. I embossed the bottom of the purse with a sizzix embossing folder. I then stamped my flowers on a circle of water color paper and one all by it self that I will cut out. I used water color pencils to color them. I cut out the one flower I had stamped on it's own. I die cut a doily from some pastel paper. I layered the doily,flower circle and then the single flower( with a pop dot) on the front of the purse flap.I added some sheer ribbon for the handle and I ended up with a very spring looking purse card. I did 3 different colors just for fun. I can not decide which one I like best.

Pretty pink roses


Well I am longing for spring like many of you out there. I pulled out some flower stamps to get me in a better mood.Pink makes me think of spring and all the things that spring brings like Easter,Weddings, first communions,Proms.
  This card is a pretty pop of pink with the roses colored with water color pencils on water color paper. I did a little masking with the rose stamp to pull the flowers into a tighter arrangement. I matted them with a pretty spellbinders pink mat and then to give it an even softer pink look I attached it to a soft pink gingham paper.
  The stamp I used is a rose from Raisin Boats Blissfull Blossoms
   Pull out some of your flower stamps and play it will hopefully give you some joy and hope that spring is coming.
