Welcome Spring

With the warmer weather here and the snow melting a little each day, a feeling of spring is in the air!  Today I am using the Vintage Angel from Prickley Pear Rubber Stamps.   I didn't want here to be an angel for this card, but a beautiful lady gathering flowers, so I cut off the wings and made her what I wanted.  I used parts of the doily dies from Cheery Lynn for the background.  With these larger doily dies they require more effort to get the entire thing cut out.  Sometimes I don't get every thing cut out the way it should be, so I use the parts that are good and cut off the parts that aren't.  This creates a unique look of it's own.  I added a few score lines with my ScorBuddy and sanded the lines.  Then I added the Welcome Spring sentiment and a few pearls.  Now check out more wonderful ideas from our very creative design team  on the PPRS blog!
