Week 2 Spring Collection Challenge

It's the end of Week 2 of the Create with Connie and Mary Spring Collection and we've had fun showing off the Sale-A-Bration products this week in our project tutorials.  Now it is time for our Saturday Challenge.  We have a fun color challenge this week!  Love the soft colors and hope they put you in the mind of Spring!

 

Here's my card using You're Lovely in the Sale-A-Bration catalog.  I also used the beautiful Sweet Sorbet Designer Paper that is another option for Sale-A-Bration!

 

Here are the details:

1. The base is 4 1/4 x 11 Sahara Sand, folded in half.
2. I added a 4 x 5 1/4 piece of Pistachio Pudding cardstock.
3. On it, I added 1 3/4 x 3 1/4 pieces of Sweet Sorbet Designer Paper, rounding the two corners on each piece.
4. Over those, I added a 1 3/4 x 4 3/4 piece of coordinating Sweet Sorbet DSP and rounded all four corners.
5. I stamped the floral image with Black Stazon, then watercolored with Pistachio Pudding and Crisp Cantaloupe markers and my AquaPainter.  I added the Live Happy greeting in Black Stazon, too.
6. That was cut with the Deco Label Framelit.  Then I matted it by cutting two more Framelits the same size, cutting one in half lengthwise and one in half vertically, then spaced them so it created a mat.
7. My final touch was to add Sahara Sand Candy Dots on the horizonal pieces.
