Happy Spring

Here are the lovely colors that Mona has chosen for us this week at CR84FN.  These aquamarine colors are probably some of my favorites at this time of year.

Here is what I made for this week:

The smaller print paper is from My Mind's Eye Stella & Rose "Hazel" pad, and the bigger print is a resized digital paper.  When I resized it from a square to a rectangle in Word, the polka dots became polka eggs, and off I went on my bird theme! The central panel is a piece of graph paper from K&Company's Brenda Walton Flora & Fauna Ledger Pad; I chose the top of one of them that had this egg printed on it.   The bird is a from Stampin' Up set called Touch of Nature, borrowed from my friend Carol.  I threaded some blue and white baker's twine through the holes at the top and tied a double bow at the end.  To finish I added some pearls and the sentiment.  This sketch is from Julee Tilman when she was a guest designer at CASE Study last month; I just turned it 90 degrees.
