CAS(E) This Sketch and Dynamic Duos {Welcome Spring}

Wow, I love that we have another hour of daylight at the end of the day!! Woohoo! Isn't Spring so refreshing and happy!! It always amazes me how affected I was by the Winter months. I do not realize how gloomy I was feeling until Spring arrives.


Today I am playing along with the super sketch at CAS(E) THIS SKETCH and the pretty colours at Dynamic Duos. 


I used the Stampin' Up set called "Elements of Style". Oh how I love this set!!! I inked my flowers with Copics and punched out the small "For You" sentiment with my 1" Circle Punch. I also added some aqua baker's twine to the little strip across the card. The green designer paper is from my scrap bin, gotta love that! I tidied up my craft space and reorganized all of my stamps...it was so refreshing being able to see all the stamps and goodies that I own. I love crafting at a clean desk!


I also wanted to play along with a couple more challenges:
A Gem of a Challenge-Floral Frenzy
All Sorts-Springtime
Bugaboo Stamps-Theme Challenge-Green Thumb-Flowers and Using my Scraps
