Hello friends, we are into our last Spring season at The Four Seasons for this year
and next month moving into Summer, so enjoy it while you can!
We have a pretty and fun SPRING inspiration board for you
but you can create anything SPRING!
I was totally inspired not only by the fuzzy duckling in the top
right corner but also all the pretty Spring colors!
This little duck from Cottage Cutz Duckling In An Easter Basket
wasn't too picky to make but I sure made it difficult lol!
I cut it from my Big Shot on a scrap of white cardstock but didn't think I
got a good cut so recut it with a shim, still didn't think it cut correctly so
then I cut a third time in my Sizzix Switch and had the same result
then deciding it cut as it was suppose to in the first place.
After all that I colored each piece with Copics and Olo's then started to
assemble it. I dropped one piece glue side down on the basket so ended up
adding another small flower (on the left) and leaf which aren't part of the die set.
To make matters worse, once the card was completely done I noticed I had missed
a spot to color in on his bill, so I grabbed my Copic and yep, got it on his yellow face.
I was able with a blending pen to get most off...time to quit for the day!
But no, I still did more stupid! I adhered my Little Birdie Artsy Blooms paper,
die cut with a Waffle Flower scalloped die to my wrong side up
embossed Darice Basket Weave embossed panel, yes I did that!
But after all the stupidity I think he is still pretty cute!
Come on over to The Four Seasons and join in our LAST Spring fling for

OH MY ... this one was certainly a battle but when all is said and done, it is TOTALLY ADORABLE and I don't see any flaws at all! What a cute creation that made me smile immediately! Well done my friend!
Your card turned out super cute and love all these pretty colors. Sorry you had such trouble making it, it does sound just like a day in my craft room. At least after all these years of crafting we learned how to fix our mistakes :)
OMGosh, yes he's cute and not a single oops shows. Some days are like that. I love the paper and how everything comes together. Not sure there's a right or wrong side to that folder. It's one of my favorites and I sure love it in yellow!
duck is a bird, with wing! Thank you for sharing your creation with us at MMM
Sweetest duck ever! Bold & Beautiful! Thank you for sharing with us over @ Make My Monday.
How bright and fun this is Diane! A wonderful floral background for your cut ducky enjoying a ride in his basket! Thanks for joining us at Inkspirational: Seasonal! Julia xx
