A Little Piece of Springtime.

Hi there my Lovelies,

Yes, it's me back again with another card for you.   Where do these day's go to lol!  it doesn't seem like three days since my last post.  

To begin with I'd like to welcome my newest followers  Annie and Samantha, welcome to my lovely family of blogging friends.   I do hope you enjoy your visits.   Please pop over to my Friends blogs to see their wonderful creations too.

For tonight's card I decided not to show you another Christmas card but one which  will remind you of what hopefully  lies ahead in the New Year lol!     I have used Imagination Craft's crocus decoupage stamp set, which is just so pretty.   Below is the card we will be making, hope you like it.

    
Make a base card from white card, using a die-cutting  machine and the Spellbinder's Grand Nesties - Labels one die.     Colour the card with dusty concord Distress Ink  then,  using the small scroll stamp from the set, stamp around all the edges of the card using the dusty concord ink.

Die-cut a smaller nestie from lavender paper.   Fix this to the centre of the base card using double sided sticky  tape.    Stamp the main image of the crocus onto white card,  using the dusty concord ink pad.   Colour this with Promarker pens, adding glitter glue to the edges and to the scrolls. 

  
Stamp the crocus again a further four times, colour as the main image, cut out and 3D onto the original stamped image, using silicone glue.   Fix the 3D crocus image onto a  piece of yellow card and trim around the edges, leaving a narrow border of the yellow showing.

  
Matt this onto the lavender nestie at a slight angle.   Die-cut and emboss,  four corners from orange card using the Spellbinder's Ironworks Accents die and fix one to each corner of the image.

  
Well that's it my friends,  a little piece of Spring in the Winter.    Take good care of your selves until my next blog post.

                                                              Love and rainbows,

                                                                Hugs   Jennifer xx.
