Clear and Cloudy

Time again for another fantastic challenge at {Pin}spirational!  We have two wonderful sponsors, Stamp Art Designs and Beccy's Place , this week.  We also have a beautiful inspiration photo in my very favorite color.  Be sure and stop by the blog and see all the inspiration from the DT - and enter for your chance to win!


I used one of the images provided by Stamp Art Designs of this cute little bear.  I love the expression on that frogs face and it reminds me of spring - that's on the way soon.  The cloud die was embossed with the Swiss Dots embossing folder.  When I first looked at this inspiration photo, all I could see were flowers!  Yikes!!!  I just don't "do" flowers very well, so after several attempts decided I'd just go with more of the blue and white in the photo.



Be sure and head on over to {Pin}spriational Challenges and enter your creation for a chance to win.

Thanks for stopping by........

    I'm with you girlfriend when it comes to flowers, I love them, love seeing them on a card but I can't make them or arrange them! Love your cute card, the scene you created for the little bear is wonderful, I especially love the grass!
