Happy Almost Spring

Hello Spring:

I made a card for The Paper PLayers Color Challenge: PP728 a challenge I have not entered in a very long time. I love the colors Jaydee has chosen and knew I had markers and blends that would match well. I like this card. Do you?

I left off a sentiment not knowing to whom or when I might send the card. Besides, there is not much room for one 😄

Here is my Springy card:

I found within one of my tulips die envelopes a white die cut all ready for coloring. This die is from Taylored Expressions.  I colored it using SU Blends and Tombow ABT markers. I do not believe I had ever used the markers before so will add this to NBUS #72.

I think I used all of colors Jaydee suggested, then pasted the pretty die cut onto white rectangles cut with SU retired Rectangles Stiched Framelits Dies. 

Next I looked and found a piece of cardstock from the current SU dsp called Everyday Skies that matched the pink tulip pretty well. 

Then to finish I glued this whole topper onto a card base of SU grey called Smokey Slate. I wanted the flowers to be the star.




All done, suprisingly I've made several cards this month and here I thought I was in a slump. lol

Happy Spring. There are good signs here that it is coming, but snow in March happens often. I have loved the warmer days.🌷

Thank you for visiting and I hope you will come by again.

Jeanne, lovely to see you in the gallery - well, your card, anyway:-). I love the soft, pastel tulips. The multiple mats work beautifully to frame your florals. I also love that you left off a sentiment so that it could be used for so many occasions. Something I am really bad at doing, but should do more often. So glad you shared this beauty with us at the Paper Players this week
hugs
