Ah...feels so good to stamp again. Have been busy with other fun activities :-)
This is a Triple Challenge Easter card. Combining challenges is a great way to catch up on all the challenge fun.

This was a fun and easy card for the Easter season. I stamped the image in black Stazon over the 3 wide watercolored stripes and then watercolored the daffodil image using re-inkers and my aqua painters. I stamped the flower heads and bud a 2nd time, cut out with my papersnips and attached with dimensionals. They really pop IRL.
Enjoy and thanks girls for getting my Mojo flowing again :-)

Fabulous triple challenge card, Nancy! I LOVE the watercolored stripes as a BG for the daffodils! The popped up flowers and knotted ribbon add great dimension!

Beautiful card! Watercolor paper and use of watercolors in the BG were the perfect choice--bright and cheerful for Spring, yet softened: just like the season itself. Everything in pastels. Our dulled Winter senses wouldn't be able to handle the vibrant, gem-like colors of Summer so soon, so we have Spring to gently work us back into a colorful world (at least those of us who live where there are four distinct seasons).

Oh, yeah! Your mojo is definitely flowing! Beautiful as ever, Nancy. I'm inspired by your sketch. (PS - did you type your fingers weary as you made comments as the Featured Stamper last week?!!! Hope not!)
