Laurie's Garden Angel

 Happy Monday HH fans!

Today I have Laurie's Garden Angel to share with you.  At first when I looked at colouring up this image I was like....this is going to take a while...but I challenged myself & dove right in.  I'm so glad that I did because I loved every minute of colouring this one.  I did the colouring in chunks.  What does that mean?  Well rather than looking at it as a daunting task, I looked and said I'm going to colour this little part.  Before I knew it I was all done.  I was a little sad it was complete because I wanted to keep colouring lol.

My list of colours for this beauty is looooong but don't let that scare you...remember colour in chunks!

Laurie's Garden Angel

Welcome Everyone;

May is now here and buds on some bushes and trees are starting to bloom.  It is also time to start thinking and how to re-establish the grass and flowerbeds and the planning of the vegetable garden.

For today's card which is a CAS one, I have used the adorable Laurie's Garden Angel from High Hopes Stamps.  What's more I have gone out of my comfort zone.  I don't use yellow often, except maybe for flowers and never to colour  clothes -- those are usually, pinks, a rose colour etc.  So Laurie's outfit in a combination of yellow and blue is a definite first.  I definitely like the combo.  I used Nuvo Morning Dew Crystal Drops to create some crystal drops on the design paper
