Good Monday Morning to you friends!
I am here today with my design team post for The Shabby Tea Room - week #209. This week's host is Aneta with the theme of "Spring is Near" and this lovely inspiration photo:
Aneta asks that you create a card or project inspired by the photo and INCLUDE BABY BLUE, BIRDS AND SPRING FLOWERS.
Here is my card:
The "baby blue" and "flower" elements are obvious but I thought I would add a detail shot to show the "birds" which are from an embossing folder. I embossed a piece of vellum with the birds and butterflies folder and then added some color with some aqua blue ink on the birds and some kraft ink around the edge of the vellum.
The sweet wheelbarrow is a digital cut file from our sponsor this week: - The Cutting Cafe!
I used the pdf version and hand cut the wheelbarrow for my card. I love how sweet it looks filled with flowers! The sentiment on my card is from a Paper Sweeties stamp set called: Sending Springtime.
The Cutting Cafe is your one stop shop for affordable cutting files and printable stamps. They offer a huge selection of products for just about any occasion.
Thanks for taking a look at my project for this week. I hope you will hop on over to The Shabby Tea Room to see all of the inspiration for this week's challenge and to hopefully join in the fun!
Have a great week everyone!
:) Jill
