52 Cards challenge 2014 - Week 12

Morning folks!

Hope you had a lovely weekend. :) It's time for another colour prompt and I went off in search of a palette that really encompassed some pretty spring shades.

Use any combination of shades and colours depicted below - if you can create a card that really depicts that spring feel all the better!

Here's my card:

Paper: MME
Stamps: PTI, WPlus9
Die: PTI
Trim: Basic Grey
Other: button, twine, Stickles, Corner chomper

Finally having enough dye inks in my stash to pull off this style, I managed to get the branches more or less straight by marking guidelines with a pencil beforehand. Previously I stamped these using chalk ink and as you know I am a wonky stamper if left to my own devices! I stamped the branches in Adirondack Lettuce (I still need a green ink that is between Lettuce and Willow though), then stamped single flowers in Peach Bellini, triple flowers in Lemonade, and the berries in Salmon pink. The greeting is from an Easter egg set by WPlus9 - still need to stamp those eggs! And I finished off the stamped bunny with some Frosted Lace Stickles on his tail. I really love combining those branch stamps with Easter themes as I think they go so well together. :)

I hope you have fun with this one - and I'll be back to share my Christmas card later.

Such a pretty card Nat with two of my favourite stamps. I love the bunny and love the garland which I still haven't been able to get hold of.
