Every Flower Is A Soul

It's our last month for Spring at The Four Seasons
and we have a beautiful Spring mood board for inspiration! 

I was inspired by the flowers and the yellow colors,
yellow happens to be my favorite color, it's so happy and pretty!

I used a Paper Rose Bee's & Butterflies Basic paper for my background.
The dies I used for all is a Waffle Flower  Lacy Layers 2.

A few years ago I purchased some Paper Studios stickers from hobbylobby,

though you can't tell, these stickers have sparkle-y glitter on them.

I mounted the stickers on card stock for stability, then fussy cut them out
and popped it up on the die cut.  The sentiment is a Spellbinders 
Gardens Favorites stamped with Dew Drop Morocco ink.

Come on over to The Four Seasons and join in our last SPRING challenge for this year!

Happy Birthday Cats

Colorful Options has a PURR-FECT mood board this month and has this to say:

" I wanted to take inspiration from all the tuxedo cats out there.  A Black & White inspiration board with a little pop of color from their eyes & collars.  Have fun making!!

Well this board certainly appealed to me though it did make me miss my black cats, my all white cat and my tuxedo cat,
yes I had them all at one time or another!

I had a new to me and yet to have been used die I purchased off of Amazon
of these three kitties, a die I am sure you have seen many times,
but it still appealed to me. I used a Cuttlebug Love Triangle EB folder,

some glittery DCWV old paper from my stash and a Katy Sue sentiment
with plenty of black scraps to die cut the kitties.

Better view of the cats:

Isn't that board fun?  We hope to have you join in our black and white

fun over at Colorful Options and if not fond of this color combo
you can always use rainbow colors, that's your option!!

Happiest BEE-Day

 Our challenge at Simply Clean & Simple has an
OPTIONAL theme of Things That Fly,
but you can create anything as long as it is CAS.

Last year I went a bit crazy in purchasing BEE stamps, dies, stencils
so my 'thing that flies' today is none other then the cutest
little BEE from Unity BEE-HOLD stamp set.
After stamping and coloring my bee I fussy cut him out.
Though not seen, I added a bit of Stardust shimmer to the wings.
He was mounted on a hexagon die cut.  The embossed background is
an older Darice EB folder.  The fun sentiment is part of
the stamp set.

We are looking forward to seeing your CAS designs at
Simply Clean & Simple!
