Spring Leap

Hello all! Have you checked out the new releases over at the Whiff of Joy Stamps? The Love Bug collection is a beautiful spring collection illustrated by Elizabeth Bell and the Snowwhite and the 6 Gnomes illustrated by Norma Fickel are just too cute! I have a card made using the delightful Spring Leap to share with you today.


Didn't I say that she is delightful? I think she makes the world smile with her! =)


I stamped and masked her off before I stamped the Spring Meadow behind her. I then used the Labels 17 die and the out of the frame technique to cut the image. There were some daisies in her basket, but I wasn't going to fuzzy cut them and hope that the patterned paper makes up for them. =)


The lovely patterned paper is from the Stella and Rose Hazel collection by My Mind's Eye. I love all of the Stella and Rose collections that they came out with! The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink.

That's all for today. Hope you have fabulous day! =)



Thanks for stopping by!

Just gorgeous Alice! You make the most amazing cards! This one is so beautifully colored and perfectly embellished! :)

P/s: Can I check what paper you use for stamping? Mine tends to bleed when I use my Copics.

Every time I visit here my first thought is OMG! Your out of the box girl really leaps out of the frame. She is beautiful. LOVE your coloring, layout and everything else. No....we don't miss whatever is in the basket. Wouldn't even have noticed.
