Well here we are and it's March already! How did that happen? The good thing is that March means Spring is closer than it was in February, right! I don't know about you but I'm more than ready for Spring!
Our Color Dare challenge makes me feel like Spring. We reference Close To My Heart colors but you can use any brand you have as long as you can make a very close match. Kind of close doesn't count. Make any paper craft you like. When you're ready to join our challenge click here.
Our March Stamp of the Month: Just Chicken In is a fun stamp set with so many ways to use it! Those adorable little chicks are ready for all kinds of looks on cards or layouts! The spray of daffodils gives you a totally different way to create with this set. Here is a daffodil card I made to show off those pretty flowers.
The flower centers and stems were colored with pencils with the petals painted in Clear Shimmer Brush.
I used our Irresistibles paper for and our Stitched Fancy Bracket Thin Cuts for the "frame" around the flowers. The pattern of the Irresistible paper was enhanced with Lagoon Ink and a Blending Brush.The narrow strip of Honey Butter cardstock ties in with the flower centers creating a nice balance. A couple of the medium toned Journey Loose Sequins finished the look.

Like the softer colors for this color challenge and of courser daffodils bring back fond memories, and a show of Spring around the corner. Beautiful card.
