Watering Time -- An All Dressed Up Stamps New Release

 It's New Release day at All Dressed Up Stamps!  Twice each month, the ADU design team features the current month's new releases.  Today is one of those days! So fun!

I have the pleasure this month of being able to create with the darling Watering Time digital image. Here she is:

I colored Watering Time with Copic markers, then used a set of dies from Spellbinders Paper Arts to create the shaped card. The sentiment is from a Hero Arts set. 

I hope you enjoy what I created with Watering Time.  To see more inspiration, and the other new release, visit the ADU Facebook group or challenge blog.

Thank you for the visit to my blog:

You're the Friend, featuring new things are We Are 3 Digital Shop

 Happy Easter to all those who celebrate it!  We still have a lot of snow on the ground, so it doesn't "feel" much like Easter, but certainly we will celebrate the resurrection, no matter what Mother Nature says.

We Are 3 Digital Shop recently releases some new products.  There are 2 new paper packs and a new sentiment set. I tried to showcase them on this card:

The gingham papers (both mint and pink) and the pink layered in the die cuts are from the Spring Fling papers.  The sentiment, part of the Bookmark Thoughts sentiment set, has some wonderful sentiments in the set.  It is printed on a paper from the newly released Stained Glass papers.

I used dies from Crafter's Companion to create this card  The gingham layer is inked with a Catherine Pooler ink. 

Stop by We Are 3 Digital Shop to see all the wonderful goodies there. 

Springtime! For All Dressed Up Stamps

 Hello!  Thanks for stopping by. It's April 1, so a new challenge starts today in the All Dressed Up Stamps Facebook group -- no fooling! This month's theme is Die cuts &/or Punches.  You can have fun with that one! There are many, many darling images to choose from in the ADU Etsy Shop.

I am longing for spring, but Mother Nature is pulling an April Fool's joke on us today.  We have 8 fresh inches of snow, and it's still coming down.  My wish for warmer weather and warm sunshine compelled me to use the image For You on my card for this month's challenge.  Isn't she adorable?

Since the challenge theme is Die cuts/& or punches.  I used multiple die cuts on this card.  I die cut the For You image, then cut the 2 frames (all Lawn Fawn dies).  The cute pink flowers were on my desk left over from another card I made.  They are by Concord & Ninth.  I used some dew drops in the centers of the flowers.

I hope you can join us this month in the All Dressed Up Stamps Facebook group!
