Paper Sweeties March Inspiration Challenge #29-'Waiting For Spring'

 
 
Hi Friends!

Have you been waiting for spring?  I sure have and hoping warm spring weather comes soon!  This is my third post for today, so please scroll down to see my Dies R Us project and Cupcake Inspirations card for their 300th Challenge! 

And, here is my card...

 

Isn't that a lovely inspiration photo with the mason jars and flowers?  For my project, I got out Sophie and die cut her with Sweet-Cuts-Sophie.  I colored her with copics and paper pieced her outfit, which is from the stamp set Live Love Grow  The flower pots and water can are from the same set.  The flower in Sophie's hair is from the set Home Tweet Home.  And, the sentiments are from the set Welcome Spring.  The sun was made with a circle die cut from Sweet Cuts-Be Happy and  a scalloped circle punch from Fiskars.  The grass was made using the die cut from Thanks Snow Much.  And, the sequins are Bubblegum and Cookie Dough. 

I do hope you have fun creating a card or project this month for the challenge for one lucky winner will be awarded a $20 gift certificate.  And, an invite to be guest designer for the following month!

Hop along to see what awesome creations my fellow teammates created!  And, please welcome our newest Paper Sweeties design team members, Cheryl Lea and Kathy Schweinfurth!  Welcome to the team, ladies!

 

 
I 'll see your fabulous project over at the challenge...have fun!  Thank you for visiting today!
 
Hugs,
Maria

  6. Your card really says Spring...love the flower pots/flowers and that cute paper pieced watering can. Sophie's paper pieced outfit is great. And, I'm glad you added some beautiful sunshine..something I don't think we will have for a few more days.
