From The Heart March Progressive Freebie

I absolutely love Faith Skrdla’s images and try whenever possible to take part in the Progressive Freebie challenge over at From The Heart Stamps. This month we were given the fabulous Hamlet PigWit set Think Spring. I adore piggies, butterflies and pretty flowers so this set is just perfect for me. There is an Irish based image and lots of sentiments too. Lucky old me J

I have used the current sketch at I{heart} Sketches for the layout.

The image is coloured using Promarkers and Flexmarkers and mounted onto a die cut shape from a Nestabilities Lacey Squares set. Following the sketch layout I have used 2 co-ordinating spotty papers for the background and then cut a circle of red cardstock to mat the image.

I added the sentiment in the bottom of the card and some Prima flowers and gems to balance out the top corner.

Unfortunately the unexpected passing of my Husband’s Grandmother has caused my crafting time this month to be severely curtailed so I am later than I hoped getting this card made. Hoping not to be so late next month and can’t wait to see what we get to play with next month.

Thankyou Faith for your generosity in running these challenges and providing us with such gorgeous images.
