Spring showers


There really is nothing better than a spring shower to clean up all the winter mess!  I love this image of two little kids walking through the puddles of the spring showers. I Colored with pencils, used a large oval Stitched die cut, Layered on a light blue card stock. I laid it, crossways and cut off all the edges after I had used light blue ink on my white card stock to give it a little depth. I used raindrop gems as accents.

Dropping you a line flip fold


I love cats! This one is no exception..I made this into a small flip card on tan cardstock with a red checkered background and a fancy diecut. Colored with pencils 








Smile!


The image is from house, mouse colored with pencils are used to small, oval stitch around the image, layered it on a piece of red that I had rounded the corners on adding four buttons and a bow. The flip card is out of red, and I coordinated it with a spring flower full of roses and added a banner sentiment in black ink. I hate real mice… but this little one turned out pretty cute!
