Spring On The Farm

 
Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share with you a couple of projects made over the last couple of weeks but haven't uploaded them due to a migraine that won't quit.  The weather we've had recently has been a little crazy - winter temps suddenly turning into spring temps; then dropping 20 degrees overnight with thunderstorms; now back to spring. Sigh.  Mother Nature please make up your mind.  


First up, I have a fabulous country farm card made using images from Conjurer of Dreams plus a couple from my digital stash.  I started out by combining the following COD sets ( Anne of Green Gables, Old Purple Truck, Old Red Barn) in Photoshop before adding the horse, trees, birds from my stash.  Once I had printed out the finished image, I layered it and added some faux brads before adhering it to a rust colored card.  After adding some copper cord from my stash, my card was finished.

Next up, is an adorable spring ATC  made using Conjurer of Dreams Ladybug Love, Fairy Sprite and Quirky Faries digital sets.  These were also combined in Photoshop before printing onto Neenah white card stock, then layering onto scraps and adding faux brads.  Digging through my smaller scraps, I punched some greenery and flowers using my Martha Stewart punches and adhered those using Glossy Accents before adding some red stickles to the flower centers, small red bow and finally a wooden ladybug sticker I've had for years.

  3. Sorry to hear you've been under the weather - I hope crafting helps. What a great image - those ladybirds look as though they have googly eyes. I love the little owl too in the ribbon. Thanks for sharing with us at Creative Artiste Mixed Media - hope to see you again next month.

  7. For the cute ATC mixing lady bugs and a wee fairy, I would love to see it at Heart's Quest Fantasy (using the old The Fairy and The Unicorn blog address) if you're not limited on # of linkups with the already listed for the ATC...just saying! <3
