Yellow = Spring

Have you noticed that lately I've been on a yellow kick.  It's a good thing that yellow is darn cheerful and a perfect color for spring.  So let's not question the whys and wherefores, let's just enjoy the warm thoughts and feelings that come with yellow.

Here's the deets:
stamp - My Favorite Things "One Sweet Chick"
ink - Memento "Tuxedo Black"; Close To My Heart" Desert Sand
paper - yellow cs Colorbok; white Blender cs from MFT; white textured cs scraps for mats; Rubber Soul "Garden Variety Collection" dp
miscellaneous - copics, divine twine; charm; Close To My Heart "buttercup" brads; Favorite Finds "Lace Inspirations" buttons; daisy ribbon, sewing machine;
nesties circle and inverted scallops dies; embossing folder


don't forget the inside

Here's the challenges:
My Favorite Things MFTWSC14 - sketch
Stamp Something - Sassy Circle Somethings
Raise the Bar - Hey chick!
If the Shoe Fits FF#74 - SPRING Is In the Air
Paper Cutz #86 - Use and image of a bunny, lamb chick or Easter eggs
Crafty Catz #77  - Embossing (the yellow cs strip on the top portion is embossed)
DYSU #14 - follow the YELLOW brick road
CRAFT #97 - Animals/Pets
Stamp with Fun #105 - Easter
Shabby Tea Room #56 - photo of fancy Easter Eggs as inspiration
(I love this photo and could make a dozen cards after looking at it for this card I was inspired to use a stamp with an egg in it for this card)
Let's Ink It Up - Easter Creations
Whoopsie Daisy - It's Springtime
Tuesday Throwdown #43 - Spring
Simon Says - It's Time For Spring Colors
Craft Us Crazy #5 - Happy Easter or Spring
