I am happy to announce that I am now on the design team of Stampin' B's. This is my first upload for the weekly challenge. The challenge is to use a circle, oval and square on your card. I used the circular nestie at top, the square on the image and framing and ovals for the sentiment. I really enjoyed this challenge. If you'd like to join in, put StampinB on your keywords and link your card to their blog found here:
I used a retired SU image which I love - the wheel barrow with an array of flowers and a bird. Watercolored, added yellow stickles to bird and lightly sponged on the mat. Used SU's dsp called Springtime Vintage, which I love. Used a coordinating ribbon in Rose Red, added some of my pink pearl buttons as well as pearl swirls. I embossed the sold image panel.
Thanks so much for taking a look and hope you can join us.

Hey Pamzi, I just noticed your keywords. On SCS we usually use "StampinB" as the keywords on our cards--no apostrophe--so the punctuation doesn't confuse anything. If you edit your post and add "StampinB" to your keywords, your beautiful card will show up in the Stampin' B's gallery, 'K?

Well, I just know this card is coming straight to me because of that little birdie. Super job on your first challenge and welcome to the B's. Love that paper and the image (wheelbarrow full of Spring and Summer delights). O.K., I saw what you put on my blog...the craziness continues, huh? Of course, it does. LOL
