Hello, Friend! ♥


Hi friends!

I'm sure many of you can't wait for Spring after the long, harsh Winter you have had!  I see the temps are starting to get warmer in many areas
of the country so I'm really happy for you all ♥
 
Here is my card for the monthly image challenge at From the Heart Stamps!
This is for the progressive stamp challenge -
if you play along, you'll receive the next month's image so it's a win/win!
This month's image Hamlet PigWit Think Spring is just too cute!

 
 To create my card, I used the challenge from Sketch Saturday
from their current challenge of "Anything Goes" using an old sketch
from #s 215-302 .... I went WAY back to September
 
 
 


The papers are from a very old Basic Grey stack
that I've had in my stash for forever!
It was nice to finally use them up - especially
since I really struggle with pastels, especially pink ~
I just can't get my mind to work around the softer Spring colors ..
I'm funny that way, I suppose! :)


I'll enter my card into the From the Heart Stamps progressive challenge
and the Sketch Saturday (#275)
 
Big hugs, Bigger Blessings!
~Kelly
