is it safe to come out yet? (a springtime card)

It's been painfully cold here, and of course that's turned my fancy to hiding indoors and dreaming of spring.
Even though this pair (from Sin City Stamps) look more like bluebirds (which is what happens when one stamps bird images on blue paper), I actually had turtledoves in mind . . . not lovey doves, but springtime doves.
The background stamp (also Sin City Stamps) is over a shimmery watercolor wash of Niji Pearlescent Watercolors , paper pieced with hymnal pages from a Vintage Text collection and Glitz patterned paper , which happens to be on sale right now at Altered Pages.
 
Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.

Full Circle

Hi all! Becky here today! I have been in a circle-mood lately & have been doing circles on everything! So why not do some circles with some of my Gelli Prints??? Here's a simple little card I made using 4 different circle punches, a black pen & some previously made Gelli prints! Hope you're enjoying Springtime in your area! Cheers!
