Spring

    Hi everyone. It's Tuesday, and time for another new challenge at Try It on Tuesday.  It's also St. Patrick's Day, which even though I don't celebrate that holiday, is a big holiday in my area. πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€ 

    Let me thank everyone who joined our Make It Feminine challenge. There were some lovely link ups, and I was glad to see such a variety too. This time our new challenge is  SPRING

    This bunny is sure "hoppy" spring is coming (or maybe has arrived in your area), and I think he is dreaming about all the clovers he might be able to find and eat. Grin.


  To make my background I used a clover stencil and some green stencil paste. I only had this brownish green stencil paste, so after that dried, I took the same stencil and a green watercolor marker to make some brighter green clovers. Then I inked my page with some light green ink, which made the watercolor green clovers get a bit fuzzy looking. I liked that effect, so I decided to continue with my page as it was.

   The bunnies are from a Paper Artsy set designed by Elenazinski. I stamped him 3 times on white paper, colored those bunnies in, and then fussy cut them. I glued them down on my page. I added little green clover confetti pieces below the feet of each image, and then I used the hoppy word stamp  several times as well as  a spring word stamp to finish the quote. (And sorry, I can't remember who made the set with the hoppy stamp. I think it's from an old Paper Smooches set.)

  Be sure to check out the other spring ideas from the design team.  There's so many ways you can represent spring, isn't there?

   As always our challenge runs for the next 2 weeks and at Try It on Tuesday you can link up any type of art.

  I'm also linking  my journal page up to Chris' Spring challenge at Art Journal Journey. Please remember we only accept art journaling at AJJ.

  I'm so ready for spring after a tough winter so I am looking forward to seeing some spring art. I hope you include yours. And if you celebrate St. Patrick's Day, make it a great green day. I hope to see  you over at  the Try It on Tuesday website.

  2. That's such a fun and cheerful page! It's a holiday here today, of course. It's been raining--hopefully, for the sake of the participants in the parade, it'll stop by the time they start. Enjoy the day!

  5. That bunny is so cute and fun. All the rain we had washed away all the snow in the backyard. I can see the grass, not as bright green as your page, but still a bit of green. Happy St. Patrick's Day

  20. What a fun bunny, he certainly looks happy hopping around on his clover page. Great pics of the tulips, even though they're fading, they still look interesting. Had a little scroll back and the baking pics look yummy - love the look of your fabric journal, you've got some gorgeous pieces of lace.
