Do YOU have Spring Fever???


Hello - Hello - Hello,  my friends!!!

It feels like such a long time since I've posted here, not that I haven't been keeping busy in crafting... but those things you will be seeing soon enough!  ha ha....

Today, the Belles 'n Whistles Challenge Blog has a brand new challenge going on....  It couldn't possibly be any easier to play along.  It's such a simple theme!
Spring Is In The Air...  Do you think you can handle that one? 

I decided to dig into some of my older Belles 'n Whistles stamps, as a matter of fact this one was from the VERY FIRST release from Belles 'n Whistles.  Do any of you remember Li'l Miss Poppy???  She certainly was a sweetie when she was first released, and she still just steals my heart!




I colored her using Copic Markers, and as you can see, I went a little crazy with my distressing... Yes I wanted a Spring Time card, but I wanted it to look a bit of a vintage/old/worn looking card....  I think I achieved what I was looking for.

Other Challenges this card is entered in:

Paper Sundaes - "Anything Goes"
Stamptacular Sunday - "Anything Goes"
Simon Says Stamp - "Spring Flowers"

Cute Card Thursday - "Spring Flowers"
