Peachy Celebrate Spring

Hi Dreamers!

Although it feels absolutely nothing like Spring here in Michigan, I wanted to make something to remind me of Spring.  I used a floral bouquet stamped on news print decorative paper to try to elicit memories of long ago Spring.  I am tired of snow.

Materials:

Stamps: Serendipity Stamps

Ink: Coffee Archival; Rusty Hinge Distress Ink

CS: Calypso Coral, Crisp Cantaloupe, Chocolate Chip -Stampin' Up

DP: Tell your Story stack - Teresa Collins

Distress Markers: Rusty Hinge, Dried Marigold, Spun Sugar, Worn Lipstick

Sheer Ribbon

Coral Satin Ribbon

Coral Fabric

3-D Zots

Candy dot embellishments

Stickles Glitter Glue

Instructions:

• Make a card from  Calypso Coral CS and layer with Crisp Cantaloupe
• Stamp the image on the DP with Coffee ink
• Color the flowers with Rusty Hinge, Dried Marigold, and Spun Sugar markers
• Color the Vase with Rusty Hinge and Worn Lipstick markers
• Layer onto Chocolate Chip CS
• Stamp Celebrate with Rusty Hinge ink

• Add the embellishments: glue the color ribbon pieces folded in half and some doodad poofs made from fabric--cut a circle and run gathering stitches and pull up gathers; knot thread--makes a poof.
• Glue a piece of the sheer ribbon behind letting it peek out from the edge
• Glue the stamped piece to the card front with 3-D zots
• Add Glitter Glue to the heads of the candy dot embellishments and to the centers of the flowers
