Here comes Spring

 The new challenge at Try It On Tuesday is Here Comes Spring.  My first thoughts about spring are always about new growth so my journal pages is about flowers and baby birds.  My background is inked and stencilled, bird in the nest is a very old Stampendous stamp, flowers are Thinlets die cuts.  The design team have lots of inspiration over on the challenge site so I hope you will pay them a visit.

Oh so sweet

 Oh how the weeks fly by ! now it's time for the new challenge at Try It On Tuesday and this time its "Oh so sweet"  This can be any type of medium, journal pages ,cards etc as long as it fits the challenge. My first idea was cake but then I changed my mind and used this little sweet angel instead, its a very old Oxford Impressions stamp from Fairy Sweets set, the heart and sentiment are from another Oxford Impressions set.  Hope you will pop over to the challenge blog and see the lovely samples from the design team. 

I've just had to edit this as part of the card was missing at the side, don't know why!

For my card I have used a new stamp which was free with a magazine, the background stamp is Inkylicious splat stamp and the embossed panel is a Gina Kay embossing folder (I think? as it was a gift last Christmas)

Lets get messy

 The new challenge at Try It On Tuesday is "Lets get messy"  any type of medium is fine as long as it follows the theme.  My get messy is a page in my small kraft journal which is makinly made from mop up papers from earlier messier projects, I just added a bit of stencilling  and stamping, water coloured the butterfly and added a few bits and pieces.  The mop up paper by the way is from a roll of wallpaper lining paper which is quite old and has got a nice aged look to it to start with !

This is the opposite page done in the same way

There is lots of inspiration from the design team over on the challenge blog so I hope you will pay them a visit.
