Lucky for me I was invited to be guest designer at The Crafting Challenge for March. What a great topic - Come and join us for this Waiting For Spring challenge, here: thecraftingchallenge
Hyacinths are such an iconic spring flower and what fabulous perfume. I chose the plaid paper to compliment because the colours are so springy.
This is one of those NBUS picks for me, I have had these stamps/dies for a long time/years, they were a magazine freebie from Practical Publishing and are just perfect for this challenge. The diecut teacup (came with the stamp set) edges inked with Ranger DI's and stamped with a flower pattern. Image coloured with Copics and fussy-cut, with the little extra label and heart all from the same stamp/die set. The EF is Sizzix on a shaped diecut (it's a shame the stitched border doesn't show very well) and the digital plaid paper is from Crafty Cardmakers. White pen dotty highlights and a red gem for pretty!
Wouldn't you like to have this on your windowsill while waiting for spring??
