Think Spring-Bloggers Challenge

It's Friday again, time for the Blogger Challenge. Surprise....!!! no grunge! I found this stamp by Stampendous and this beautiful paper at my LSS the other day. Paper is a 6x6 pack from Crafty Stampers called Springtime. Ohhhhh, such beautiful papers, I lost control!

The theme this week is Spring, and what better way to showcase Spring but with beautiful pastel colors and flowers. For me, I would call this CAS. One stamp, 2 layers, a little tech and a little bling. I stamped in black directly on the beautiful paper cut from my largest Nesties. Did the Pencil over Marker tech from the TJNL, and added the bling. I hope you like this side of me. hugz....

Here is another stunning piece from Shar. You use stamps in such an intriguing way. I looked closely at your bg dp and it looks almost like you gesso'd it with a credit card. Awesome combination.
