It's another Fairy Fun Friday and this fortnight we are celebrating spring. It seems that lots of challenges have a spring theme - truly, spring is bursting out all over! I've made several springtime cards recently and I'm not tired of them yet. I think I've got a good two or three spring projects left before my spring mojo is sprung. This card features the Prairie Fairy Terracotta Pot digital image. I checked several of my favorite challenges to shape my card around and chose The Shabby Tea Room (BINGO - buttons, flowers, glimmer), CR84FN color challenge - plum, lavender and green and the Mojo Monday sketch.
I've used Very Vanilla and Perfect Plum for the card base and bottom layers. The Perfect Plum layer has a toile type stamp embossed around the edge to give it a little interest. The lavender paper is digital by Barely Mine, the green DP is from SU and the vintage postcard is from The Graphics Fairy. I dyed the seam binding with Perfect Plum reinker to be a perfect match and the digital Prairie Fairy image is colored with Copics. A little lacer, buttons and stitching plus a hemp bow finished off this sweet spring card.
Hope to see you this week at Fairy Fun Fridays! Be sure to check out the beautiful work the rest of the design team is offering for your inspiration this week. Thanks so much for stopping by and for your wonderful comments!
