IO stamps Old is New

Good Morning

They're not kidding when they say everything old becomes new again!

I am loving this new feature at IO stamps!!!!

It gives me the opportunity to revisit many of the stamps and sets I've stowed away!!!

On this blustery day, I was wishing for a cool spring day, the grass as green as the sweet frog peeking out from behind my card!!!

Can you see the wee bit of texture in the clouds?

I used the mesh Mesh Circles Cover a Card stamp with baby blue ink to create a little more texture

Next, I coloured the flowers, bunny and bicycle from the  Riding Pretty stamp set with my Copic Markers. I cut out the sweet little images with the accompanying  Bicycle Die Set.

I created the background for the card by softly sponging on the following ink

Baby Blue Ink

Chartreuse Ink

Lime Ink

Then, I wanted some whispy grass, so I used the  Icicle Edger Die

The tree is from the Tree Frame Die, but I cut the frame part off!

I didn't want to add anything more to the front of the card, so I added the sentiment on top of a soft spring scene on the inside

Black Ink

I'm longing for a pretty spring day like this one!!! How about you?
