Goodbye Winter!!

>> Monday, February 18, 2013

In keeping with my desire to see winter go and spring come, my card today features just that!! I think this Goodbye Winter greeting is just so cute and perfect for how I'm feeling right now. I'm so ready for spring and flowers!! and yes, even bumble bees!!!


I started by stamping the interlocking flowers in Bashful Blue on white card stock and then used a yellow Copic marker to color the centers of the blue flowers. The greeting was then stamped in Memento Black ink. This was die cut with nestie squares and layered on some Bashful Blue card stock. The Bitsy Bumble Bee was stamped in Memento Black on white card stock and colored with Copics before being fussy cut and attached to the square with a pop dot.

The card base is Bashful Blue with a layer of yellow that was embossed with the CB Honeycomb folder. A strip of bashful blue was embossed with the border honeycomb folder and attached to the yellow panel after attaching a sheer blue ribbon and bow. Some blue and white daisies were punched and added to finish the look. Some yellow Fiskars dew drops were added for the centers of the flowers.

Thanks for stopping by today and taking a look. If you haven't joined in the challenge here at DRS Designs, you still have time. This week the challenge is to use the work Love on your card. We'd love to have you play along. And remember to keep watching for our 20th Anniversary Fun that's coming soon!!

Until next time,
