First up… “Whimsical Wishes” by Theresa Momber…
Today I decided to “mix it up” a bit and used not only Theresa’s new set, but I used her vase from last month’s set, “Vogue Vases”!!
I started my card with Pure Luxury Heavy Base Weight white and added a layer of Pure Luxury Accent Key Lime. A layer of Vibrant Violet and then used white again to stamp my image on. I stamped the dragonfly circle in Vivid Purple ink and then stamped the vase in Memento black. You need to do some trimming to get rid of the excess but it fits nicely in the vase! I added it to my white card stock and then stamped the leaves on top. I stamped my sentiment and then took my Scallop Circle Nestabilitie and sponged all around it with Memento Lulu Lavender. I added my circle Nestie that fit just inside the scallops and sponged more of the Lilac around it for a more subtle scallop. I stamped the dragonfly and cut it out then colored the wings in a bit with my Copic markers. I added diamond Stickles to the leaves and black Stickles to the body.
Next up… “Garden Fresh” by Gina K Designs…
I have REALLY been loving me some carrots lately… I mean REALLY… just eating the heck out of them!!! LOL So when I saw this adorable set from Gina K, I HAD to do a card with the carrots!!! Ha!
My card began with Pure Luxury Wild Dandelion. I used the dotted DP’s from Echo Park’s, A Walk In the Park, paper pack. I stamped my carrots using White card stock and colored them with my Copic markers before cutting them out. I added a jute string bow to appear as though they were tied together. My sentiment was stamped on White card stock and cut out using the new Fancy Tags 2 Nestabilities. I sponged on some Tim Holtz Distress ink, Spiced Marmalade, before removing the die. A little copper nail head in each corner completes my card.
Now check out the rest of the team to see what fabulousness they have in store for you.

Love how you spotlighted the image on the first through shading. The second brought an instant smile to my face - lovin' the bright colors and the way you tied the carrot bunches together is the perfect touch!
Hello,
I know its been some time since you made this post but if you happen to recall what color of orange copic marker(s)you used to color your carrots, I would love to know. Its so hard to tell from the online color chart and I have a bunch of Easter bunny cards with carrots to color for Easter and am clueless as to what orange would be best. Any help would be much appreciated!
