Spring Palette


When I saw this colour palette up on Ranger's website I knew I had to play along.  These colours make me think of  spring and Easter and Mother's Day.  Oh how I wish spring was just around the corner, but we still have about 18 inches of snow on the ground and that doesn't count the height of the big snow banks.

So while I wait for spring to show up I will just be getting inky with some spring colours.
Mother's Day Bouquet

It was fun to break out my Distress Inks and Stains for this project, it feels like I haven't used them in a while.  I also used my new Memory Box Die.  Love this pretty bouquet, especially with Rock Candy Stickles on the petals.  I'd forgotten how pretty the sugar-like texture of the Stickles is.

Thanks for visiting today and have a happy weekend!

  6. Oh this is absolutely gorgeous, Sue! Beautiful background and I LOVE those wonderful flowers! Brrr Sue, 18 inches of snow! We had a little snow flurry earlier, but it only lasted 5 minutes and the snow didn't stick. Hope it starts to warm up for you soon:)
