I have Spring on the brain....want it...need it! We still have snow where I live and very cold temps. This feels like the longest winter ever.
I was so happy to be inspired this am by the challenge at Splitcoast and the photo below from the blog called Damask Love. Such a great blog to be inspired by. Love Amber's photos.
I just bought the Spring Garden set from Stampin Up and wanted to play with it. I inked my tulips....love tulips, such a majestic flower.....by colouring them with Mememto markers and sprayed with water before stamping for a watercoloured effect. I added some paint splatters in the background for interest too. The panel is pop dot mounted onto the card front about the sentiment.
I think this will make a great Easter card.

We still have plenty of snow here too, Karen but I have seen two cardinals and a chickadee so spring can't be too far away. Your tulips are so soft and pretty. I love your water spritzed flowers they always look stunning.
