Welcome Spring

I loved the new releases earlier this week at PTI, in particular, the new Tulip Time stamps and dies shown to us on Wednesday.  So I pulled out one of my favorite PTI stamps from their Spring Jar fillers, and made a card.  I was inspired by Dawn to color them in shades of aqua, after seeing her coloring her peonies that way.

PTI is also introducing new stencils this time around, so I added a stencilled background to my bouquet.  My card is for the Create Along with Us challenge, and it also works for one of Winnie &Walter's Birthday challenges: Lydia's Floral Challenge.


supplies: white, back, and Surf Blue cardstock, PTI Friendship Jar Spring Fillers, Spectrum Noir Turquoise and Green markers and colored pencils, Hero Arts Tweed Pattern stencil, tumbled glass distress ink, Winnie & Walter Big Bold Seasons die and stamp sentiment, Pretty Pink Posh Share Handmade Kindness Sequins Mix

This is gorgeous - I love how folk can colour outside the normal colours, especially in flowers - I very rarely manage to colour 'outside the lines' as it were.
