Hard Times Will Reveal True Friends & Cultivate Kindness

 I've got two more cards to share today - this one is for the following challenges:

Pammie's Inky Pinkies #2613- Spring/Rain

Fab n' Funky #634 - Easter/Spring

C.R.A.F.T. Challenge #777 - Seasons/Weather/AG

AllSorts #846 - Springtime/AG

I wanted the focus to be on the image for this, so I stamped the Tiny Townies Under an Umbrella from Stamping Bella with Versafine Black and embosssed with clear embossing powder. I colored with Copics and used a rectangle nesting die set to cut out. I sponged the edges with some blue ink and attached with foam dimensional tape to the card. I layered a small scrap of raindrop paper from Unity Stamp Co. behind it and added some raindrop shaped rhinestone stickers to finish it off.

And this next one was the sketch of the week at A Cherry on Top, and I made it to fit these challenges as well:

Beautiful Blossoms #39 - AG Floral or Optional Mood Board

Simon Says Stamp Monday - Embossing

Alphabet Challenge - Y is for Yellow Flowers

Colorful Options April - Yellow or Rainbow



I used my honeycomb/hexagon stencil from Tim Holtz to apply the Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide ink, then embossed it with clear embossing powder. I added a torn piece of DP from Authentique, and a little sticker text from Tim Holtz. The digi is an old one from Just Some Lines called Emo Daffodils (no longer in business), I colored with Copics and fussy cut her, then attached her with foam dimensional tape. Peace.
