April is my favorite spring month. It's the one that has mild weather even if it's raining. Snow and violent storms are gone and the hot weather has yet to arrive. I don't mind April showers at all, especially in the midst of the severe drought we've had out here for 4 years.
For our April challenge at Open-Minded Crafting Fun we have a theme of "Pastel Colors," another of my favorite spring things. We're being sponsored by A Random Fan, Crafty Sentiments Designs, Lacy Sunshine, and Maria Medel Illustrations. I used a sweet Crafty Sentiments image called "Nature Watching."
I colored it with chalks and ProMarkers, then cut it with a die from Spellbinders. I wrapped striped ribbon through it and then layered it onto another die cut to frame it, also Spellbinders. That went onto the card front and I used a Fiskars corner punch to decorate all four corners.
Challenges:
A Beautiful Mess
A Gem of a Challenge
