Happy Monday, friends! Today at The Challenge we have an awesome sketch for you to try!
I used my new Paper Smooches birdhouse dies for the first time on this card, aren't they cute?!! I placed them on a piece of plaid Lawn Fawn paper. I just love the fresh, Spring colors of the plaids in this paper pad. The sentiment is from Winnie & Walter. I gold embossed the word "spring" and fussy cut it, and the words "is" and "here" were stamped on PTI Simply Chartreuse card stock and embossed with white embossing powder. The card base is PTI Spring Rain card stock, as are the little birds. I added some gold cord to "hang" the birdhouses from, and finished the card with some Pretty Pink Posh clear sequins.
I really love this sketch, it's so versatile and I think it's one I'll use over and over again. I hope you'll join us this week! Please be sure to pop over to Lesley's blog to see what the DT members created with this sketch, and then be sure to play along :)
