Spring is sure to follow

 Yes, eventually Spring is sure to follow!  Not sure about you but I've had enough of this winter and the sunshine can start any time now.

This cute little critter is from the Signs of Spring Collection by Kate Hadfield.  There are so many fun elements in this collection but this little fella caught my eye.

For my layout I followed the design by one of my fave bloggers, Shani from Paperesse.  Her layouts and papers are always fabulous.  

I found these papers in my stash, unfortunately I have no idea where they are from.  The image was colored with Copic markers and after matching the papers and following Shani's design the card is complete!

Hello all! I'm back with one of my creations using the Signs of Spring Collection by Kate Hadfield.

This collection is full of fabulous Spring elements and it was difficult to choose which images to use first!

I created this CAS Slimline card by coloring the image with Copic markers.  My clouds were originally colored with a much lighter blue but I couldn't get it to show up in my picture no matter what I tried so I decided on going a bit darker and I'm glad I did, now it doesn't look washed out.

I added Wink of Stella to the sun and clouds and the dotted lines to the raindrops were outlined using a lavender spica pen with just a touch of glitter.  I really wish you could see the card in person, the glitter background paper look so awesome.  The sentiment is from the Spring, Easter, Rainy Day Collection by We Are 3 on Etsy.

Stay tuned, I have more coming showcasing the Spring Collection!
