What a wonderful card! Such a striking background and I love this wonderful flower with all these numbers on it´s petals and the lovely pearl ring around the middle.

This card catched my eyes immediatly. I really love the flying letters, jumping right out of the typewriter to build words, amazing idea!

11. Inky Fingers

I love this page! The woman in black and white seems to run right into the gorgeous background with these yummy subtitle stenciled letters.

Special mentioned:

Sara Emily made this gorgeous little booklet with wonderful ATCoins inside! I love the vintage look and the pockets for the ATCoins are made so clever. Wonderful project!

Happy April Fools' day and welcome to our springtime challenge. There is no fooling me today with any kind of prank as it is also my birthday, yes seriously 😁 . For my April inspiration I made some of my Easter tags I give my family. This is my first one.

If you would like to see how this all came together just fly on over to my blog here to see all the details and a step by step. This one is for my nearly 2 year old grandson Jack who adore birds and calls them "birdham"...yes I have no idea either!! 

I will have a second Easter tag to share later in the month.

Bye for now,

I have been inspired by thoughts of blossoming tress and flowers, milder weather and created a card I wanted as delicate as the first blooms of the season.

Come by my blog to read all the details on how I made this card!

Teresa

Good morning and welcome to April. For this month's fun challenge I go from one extreme to another. For my first piece I've kept it clean and simple, I bet no-one saw that coming lol.

You know what that means for later in the month, you'd better get your sunglasses ready. For more pictures please hop over (I'm sorry I had to do it) to my blog. 

Have a wonderful April, and thanks very much for looking x

For Mum

Good morning and happy Friday. It's Sue here with my second Letters or Numbers piece, and it's a card for my Mum for Sunday. We'll just be back from our trip to America, we left in what seemed like Winter, so hopefully it will be Spring when we get back.

I've used lots of Art By Marlene stamps and stencils, and there are more pictures here on my blog. 

Have a very happy weekend everyone, and thanks very much for looking x
