Spring Can't Come Soon Enough

Hi everyone the weather can't decide whether to be Spring or winter.  It snowed earlier this week but luckily not too much Wednesday night as I had a sofa delivered yesterday. I'm already busy Spring cleaning and de-cluttering. But then I've been doing that since December.  I'm always amazed at how much stuff I've accumulated. Today I was sorting through books and reorgainzing the entertainment center and bookcases. Only thing is I got distracted reading some journals I kept from years past. I was going to toss the journals but have decided the good and bad written in them are the legacy I'm leaving. Enough jabbering and on to the card I created this week.

I'm not totally happy the way my focal image turned out. There must be a trick to get a smooth surface with molding paste. I tried sanding  after it was dry so it does look a little better. I spread molding paste which I had mixed acrylic paint in on a scrap of acrylic medium paper and placed the Just For Fun daffodil stamp in it. When dry I pulled the stamp out. I then painted the image with gelatos used as paints. My mat is cut from a scrap using my Cameo.

Wishing you thoughts of Spring and Happy Frugal Crafting till we meet again!

  1. Cool looking card. I like that daffodil, which makes me feel like spring is just around the corner. We still have no snow. When it does snow it's gone within 24 hours. Very, very unlike what our winters are like. We should have a couple feet of snow.
