Ready For Spring...

Being cooped up in the house for four days because of the snow makes you yearn for spring... sunshine, flowers, and blossoming trees! That is what I was thinking about this afternoon when I made this card:



Goodies:
All products by Stampin' Up!

Stamps: Season of Friendship set, Cute and Curly set; Sprinkles
Ink: Old Olive, Rose Red, Soft Suede Classic inks; Versamark
Paper: Not Quite Navy, Kraft, Rose Red, Crushed Curry, Whisper White cardstock; The Write Stuff DSP
Accessories: Curly Label Punch, Hemp Twine, Dazzling Diamonds glitter, Latte Button Assortment

The sketch for this design was inspired by Just Add Ink's latest challenge:



I thought it was a great sketch- simple looking but the circle makes it interesting... and a little tricky! Hee! If you have time, give it a whirl!

Hope you are enjoying your afternoon!

    I put my head in my hands and laughed when I saw your card - we're going to have to disqualify you I think. Beautiful card. Need I say it?? Thanks for playing at Just Add Ink.

    Tessa, this is an ADORABLE card - I love everything about it! We don't have Season of Friendship in Australia (yet ... fingers are still crossed) :( I love how you've put flowers in the tree. Very cute.

    Wow! What a stunning card! I had to pause the slideshow at Just Add Ink to come and have a look at this gorgeous card.

    And I agree with Christine & Kirsty - you've totally got me wanting this set now!
