Seeing the colours of spring

Good morning another new week beckons and the extra daylight in the evenings is so noticeable. The colours around me are so fresh too.

 Billy is loving being outside

 and on my walks to Dotty's Teahouse with my cards there is so much pretty blossom to be seen.

I used this colour palette for my Monday Visible Image DT make. I worked with 4 of the new mixed media stamp sets

See everything

wings of change

 and a sentiment from the fab The world need art

I decided to make a rocker card as I have not made one of these for years and it is a fun card shape. There are lots of tutorials of how to construct the card on the Internet. The circle dies I used to cut the layers and rocker are from The Works.

I stamped the eye image onto card and coloured it with distress inks  .

and then masked it out before adding some more distress inks. 

                                     The background layer is a gelli plate print from my stash using the Random art of kindness set

I fussy cut my butterflies which were stamped on pink card.

I cut the rocker using pink card and then put everything together. I also added some colour to my focal image using gel pens.

Here is my card

with some close ups

and one last shot.
