Today is the start of a new challenge at Craft a Scene. The theme is all about Spring and what it means to you. Please join in and if you do remember its all about using more than one stamp to create a scene. Spring to me means being outdoors. And thinking about getting busy in the garden. I've made a birthday card for my dad who will be 80 in May - he loves his garden although increasingly finds it difficult. That doesn't stop the love though does it?
I really enjoyed making this one - it was such fun.The stamps are all sheena douglass designs from when she was at Creative Expressions. I had lots of fun masking the trees and building up the scene. I used a clarity mask to create the clouds too.
I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges:
Totally Gorjusstotallygorjuss: Happy Birthday
Allsorts CBallsortschallenge: Spring is coming
Fantasy stampersfantasystampers: Spring colours
