Simple Spring Card

Here is another entry into the Spring challenge. I wanted to keep it simple and also work on my watercoloring. I used the blender pens on glossy white CS. I think it turned out okay but really need to work on my shading technique.

Enjoy!

Spring Outfit

Here is my second take on Spring Fashion. I made this cute little outfit and matching purse. I can't wait unitl the weather warms up here in Croatia! What I really can't wait for is Summer! Summer is my favorite season followed by Fall. Sorry the images are so dark but I couldn't find the right lighting for this card.

I hope you enjoy!

Ode to Spring

Well, here is my take on what Spring is to me. I love purses and shoes! So, I felt that I would do an Ode to Spring Fashion. I made a mini album using 12 x 12 Kiwi Kiss Card stock and Raspberry Tart DSP. Accent Colors are Rose Red and Pretty in Pink. I thought long and hard when I sat down to create this album. I wanted to stretch myself as I have been in a creative slump since Christmas. I was very disappointed that I didn't get the chance to enter into the Holiday challenge. I don't know what happend. All I know is I could not sit down and create.

I loved coming up with this card and even changed two of the designs for the purses to get the right look. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
