Spring Has Sprung


Monday means it is another challenge at Friends of Speedy TV located at Home of Speedy TV.  Week 16 is a very easy challenge, Anything Goes.

I'm using a Mark's Finest Papers, A Heinrich Company stamp set called Blessings for the image and sentiment and the butterfly is a sneak peek a from a set called Daffodil Greetings and will be released this week. The butterfly was stamped twice. I cut out all but the antennae of one of the images and popped on top. The lilies were also stamped twice with top layer popped up.

We sure hope you'll come over to Speedy TV and join us. If you play in the FOSTV challenge, you may be the lucky winner of this stamp set, Cowgirls Rule.



Also, Mark's Finest Papers, A Heinrich Company has a blog hop beginning tomorrow and lasting through Friday, 4/20. Hope you'll join in and maybe win a newly released stamp set.

Benzi.. You have the most amazing collection of flower stamps.. Absolutely love the way you have colored it.. It comes to life with your coloring... You are also one of the few people I have seen who thrive on making white cards.. I am scared of making white cards as I dirty the card stock pretty often.. Way to go.. Absolutely lovely...!!

This is beautiful Brenda!!! I love the soft yellow with black and the butterfly is gorgeous - flying off the page!

Oh, your lilies are just delightful, Benzi!! This is a truly stunning card.

(Sorry I haven't been able to stop by much recently--real life has been calling, rather LOUDLY, I might add! It was a treat to be able to stop by to see your creations again.)

Bernie said...

Gorgeous card, Brenda! Fantastic coloring as usual! I can almost smell those lilies! Sorry I haven't been by for a while, spring has finally arrived here. It's glorious! Love all the flowers in bloom. You know gardening is my second love so I've been out playing in the dirt.:)
Hugs

This is a perfect CAS card, BEnzi! You don't need anything else on here, it's beautiful with just the sentiment, butterfly and flowers. And it's nice to see the color peach, too. I don't see it much anymore.
