Peeking Spring Buddies

Hello High Hopes friends!

It's my turn to post for the High Hopes Anything Goes March Challenge

The challenge runs through 7pm EST Tuesday, March 31st.

One random participant will win 2 Free High Hopes Stamps.

However, you MUST use a High Hopes Stamp to enter the challenge. If you don't have a High Hopes Stamp, you are welcome to use our Free Digi to enter the challenge!!

Here is my card... 

This is the adorable Peeking Spring Buddies. Perfect for an Easter card. The papers are from my stash along with some Wrinkle Ribbon, Lace Doily Border and Cloud & Flag Dies. 

I kept the embellishments flat because I plan to mail this card. But if was going to hand-deliver it, I would have added some gorgeous flowers to the bottom.

The image was embossed in black onto watercolor paper and watercolored with Twinkling H2Os 

H20's I used: Wintermist Gray, Hunter Gray, Playful Peony, Orange Peal, Spiced Pumpkin, Sunflower, Buttercup, Sweat Alfalfa, Azurite, Nutmeg

Now it's your turn!! Come join in on the challenge!

Thanks for stopping by! Happy stamping!

This "Froggy Gift" paired up with a great sentiment - "Have I toad you?"

 

 Really loved doing this one - the paper colors the image and flowers! To create a background I stamped The boy then masked him off so I could stamp the stamp "Cattails" on either side of him. I colored with my Copics and then found bold color papers with Simple Stories. I sewed down all the layers - I created a band across the middle with paper and Martha Stewart Emroidery Doily Border punch. My favorite punch. I also pulled out some red mulberry roses with MS leaf punch -

Here are my Copic colors used -

Hope you enjoyed!
