LSC212 (3/20/09) The First Day of Spring

[KY Southern Belle]

It's the first day of spring and what better way to celebrate it than creating something springy!

Here are the rules:

1. Colors must be something in the Soft Subtles line, i.e., soft. If you don't have the exact colors, something close will do.

2. A spring flower or bulb must be your main image.

Here is my sample.

Please upload your cards to the gallery using keyword LSC212.

Uploading: Remember the keyword is without spaces. Use a comma between keywords with a space after each comma.

If you are new to the challenges, please feel free to do this one or ANY of the challenges at any time. There is no time limit. They are not races to see who can do one first, nor are they contests of any sort. All the challenges are simply to provide inspiration and to get us stamping!

[debbiemom23cs]

[imastampin]

I love this challenge. Spring is my thing! lol

[berlycece]

Thanks for the spring challenge!

(Did you see the date listed? ;) )

[bambi64]

Fun challenge but not sure I'll get to it. Had a card almost done that I was waiting on to see if it would fit in the challenge.. it half does as I did use flowers but I used the CC from this week.. not soft subtle ;) Oh, well. can't wait to see what everyone else does.

Pefect challenge for a bright sunny day - even if it is only 35 here this morning!

[ScrappingMommyof3]

Oooh! Such a pretty sample! Will have to get to playing today!

[princessp1971]

This challenge should turn out some pretty cards. Thanks Cindy.

[krischir]

Thanks for the challenge! I'm going to see what I can come up with... soft subtles aren't usally my "go to", so this will be fun!

Just joking here.... but I thought it was a bit funny that even the challenge hostess did not follow the rules this time. LOL Main image must be spring flower or bulb. But the little spring birdie is just adorable!! Seriously, I'm joking... I loved the little chuckle it gave me!

[twinwillowsfarm]

Super! Off to design!

[Val~Dee]

looks fun!

The date threw me! Isn't today March 20th?

[Wendy G]

I had just made this card when I saw that the LSC was posted.
What do you think???

beautiful challenge Cindy! Thanks! I may be able to play tonight as i am at my moms without stamping supplies!!!

[KY Southern Belle]

Trust me, I am ashamed. Not only that, I messed up on the date too. Fixes to come after I crawl out from a rock.

Cindy, dahlin! Great spring challenge. I will pull out my soft subtles and see what I can do! Oh, and you have the date listed at 3/29/09. I think you mean 3/19/09

[krischir]

Ah, Cindy, don't be so hard on yourself!! The date was just a typo... 0 and 9 are right next to each other. Simple mistake. But now I feel bad for even mentioning the flower thing... you can just edit and have the rule be "flower, spring bulb, OR Easter theme".

No hard feelings, I hope!

[Serenity_Stamper]

Time for a "Tea Party"! I've been wanting to bust something out with those papers/stamps. Too fun! Hope I can get to this later, but I need to go to work now

[krischir]

See, Cindy... the date thing is easy to mess up!! ;)

[Scraperwannabe]

Looks like a fun challenge. I'm ready for spring!

[Etha]

What a super fun challenge! I do hope I get to play today

[KY Southern Belle]

LOL. No, not at all. I had it all fixed and then Holly said above that the date was 3/19. I got in panic mode again and checked the calendar and I'm pretty sure it's the 20th. At least I hope it is. The ever gracious Roxie helped me fix that.

Fun challenge! Here is my card. I combined it with the Scripture Challenge. So it's both Spring and Easter!

I think my favorite colors are the soft subtles, so this is a great challenge for me.
