Fancy Friday - Spring Inspiration Edition

Hello and welcome back! I'm here with the Fancy Friday ladies, and we're focusing on some Spring Inspiration today! We're a group of current and former Artisans, and you're sure to find some inspiration here every month. Sometimes we feature colors, a sketch or like this week an inspiration piece. Aren't the images below lovely?

Fancy Friday March Spring Inspiration

 

Spring Birthday Cards using the Helping Me Grow and Perfect Pairings Stamp Sets by Stampin' Up! from Marisa Gunn for Fancy Friday

I started by coloring the flowers with markers, stamping them onto Shimmery White Cardstock and then watercoloring them. The marble pattern is from the Perfectly Artistic Designer Series Paper, which is still available in limited quantities as another Sale-a-bration item. The greeting is stamped in Basic Black ink onto Vellum Cardstock, and the dot pattern is also from the flower set and frames the greeting nicely.

The black tape is from the It's My Party Designer Washi Tape pack. I stamped the butterfly in Tempting Turquoise and punched it out.

Some 1/4" Cotton Ribbon in Daffodil Delight and Basic Black Baker's Twine finish the card front, and are secured with a staple.

The second card has many of the same details, but I used Blushing Bride and Tangerine Tango for the flowers instead. Cucumber Crush is a great color for springtime stems as well.
