Sunday Snippets - 'Hello Spring!

We've finally had a few days of lovely sunshine here - and Spring is in the air! Fingers crossed it lasts. Meanwhile it set me off making a bright and cheerful card as my snippets make:

I used: 

- 4" x 4" sunshine yellow card blank, made using a snippet of HunkyDory card - side opening. The camera lied and changed the bright yellow card base to lemon, whilst leaving the other colours as they are in real life!

- the image is a Penny Black Stickeroo, from their 'Gentle Blooms' sheet

- backed the image with a black square - trimmed down from a snippet

- glued the image panel onto the card front 

- added a simple sentiment from a Clarity Assorted Sentiments set of stickers

- quick and easy! 

I'd like to enter this card into the following challenge: 

- Allsorts Challenge #845 HERE  - under 'Anything Goes'

Dudley Pupdate: It's been a week of bouncing about doing zoomies for Dudley - amazing what a tonic some sunshine is! Mind you, he's awake with the larks with the earlier sunrises but tends to quietly occupy himself by grooming Honka Duck like a fastidious Mother!

The results from Sarn's Challenge #527 are now published in the Snippets Playground HERE.  

It's way too soon for the paddling pool but Dudley has been earning some pocket money washing down the swings and see-saw!

Love from Dudley and yours truly

  3. It seems to be one of life's mysteries as to why some colours change via the camera lens while others stay the same. Thanks for sharing this very pretty floral stickeroo card with us at Allsorts. Well done Dudley for his 'bob-a-job' efforts in the Playground.
