Spring Beauty

Oh it's been just beautiful here the past couple of days...warm sunshine and warmer temperatures, lots of birds singing and eating at the bird feeder. I finally got some of my bedding plants in the ground, my perennials are coming up...it's so refreshing!

I was running 16 different directions this morning, but I did manage to finally finish this card for the color challenge today, I had a spring theme in mind.

The colors are Bashful Blue, So Saffron, and Pumpkin Pie. I pulled out the Hostess Set God's Beauty again...love it!

The butterfly and flowers are stamped with Brown Stazon on watercolor paper and watercolored with Stampin' Write Markers and popped them up. I heavily sponged the whisper white layer to give it a sky feel and stamped the leaves to anchor the flowers. I added Pumpkin sponging on the Saffron DSP layers to give them warmth and carried through the corner rounded theme. I did have a closer picture that showed the dimension better but blogger is being SO STUBBORN and I can't get the pic to upload, despite trying what feels like a gazillion times!

That's it for today. I'll be back tomorrow with something I made for my Sister-in-Law for another baby shower this weekend.
