I hope you all had a great Easter weekend! I'm sharing a card with you today that I made for my Guest Designer spot at the fabulous challenge blog Crafting By Designs. The current challenge is "ANYTHING GOES". This is an easy one ladies, so I do hope you will join us!
I decided to take the opportunity to use some of my delicious products from Canvas Corp Brands to put together this bright and cheery spring card for my stash. It works for most any occasion I think.
CANVAS CORP BRANDS PRODUCTS USED:
The background was done with a Couture Creations Butterfly embossing folder which I then painted with some Tattered Angels - High Impact Paint Purple mixed with High Impact Paint White. Then I dabbed a little of the striaght Purple on the raised areas and splashed a little diluted High Impact Paint Black and diluted White on the surface.
The leaves are Cheery Lynn, coloured with Tattered Angels - Glimmer Mist Kiwi and Glimmer Mist English Ivy. The ribbon was coloured with Glimmer Mist Periwinkle Bouquet. The flowers were hand cut from 12x12 Burlap Sheet - Linen, and the centers were coloured with Baseboard Mist Paint - Daffodil. The doily is also Cheery Lynn.
UPDATE:
My card won an award in the following wonderful challenge:

So it seems most of the ice from Mother Nature's crazy temper tantrum has melted away, but I would like to share a few more of those photos of the ice with you while I wait for her to untie the knot from her knickers and give me back my spring weather. lol
No album of mine would be complete without a few shots from before the sun comes up.
No amount of ice could stop Mr Scruff from coming to visit.
"Oh Mr Scruff, you look so guilty...WHAT DID YOU DO??"
"Hello, my name is Pumpkin and I'm new in town."
"Is it true that the nice lady who lives here is in possession of some peanuts?"
"The rumours are true my dear Pumpkin. Here's what you're looking for, do enjoy!"
"Please come again, the buffet is open 7 days a week!"
