Pat is our hostess for the Teapot Tuesday challenge this week. And Iâm sorry - until the links issue is fixed I am sitting firmly on my hands and not wasting time providing links in my write-up to challenges only to find they donât work two weeks later :-(. Itâs in the Teapot Tuesday forum.
I have a full house for Spring - and a Spring card, too. I have been wanting to use this daffodil, so I made it work for me.
S - stitched oval, Spring flower
P - photo corners, Penny Black stamp (O March)
R - ribbon, luster rub-ons from Craft-T
I - inked embossing folder
N - Nuvo drops
G - green
I unmounted the stamp so I could use it in my stamp positioner, and stamped it several times on watercolour paper using my old Marvy Markers. The base layer was embossed with Crafterâs Companion Brocade ef inked with Mowed Lawn DOX. The photo corners are the SU punch, and were embossed with the same embossing folder, then buffed with rub-ons. I added a little LOTV sentiment tag, some Polka-dotted ribbon, and Nuvo dots.

What a lovely spring card, Sabrina. I love the image, the pretty dotted ribbon and the inked embossed folder. I am always in awe of inked embossed folders as I fail miserably at this technique. I think I need to take a full semester class on this one.

I just knew this had to be a PB image (confirmed in your write-up) Assuming the pale blue swirls in the bg are soft stenciling and the groupings of nuvo drops are pure artistic fun!

I love my Marvy Markers and you put yours to great use. Your beautiful daffodil would make a real daffodil jealous. Beautiful framing and the addition and placement of the Nuvo drops is spot-on. Fabulous card.

I love the painted feel to this image. I never feel I do painted stamp images justice when I use them. I really should try again as it has been a while since i used one. Great spring colors and cute card Sabrina.
