Fusion - Easter






Happy mail arrived this week - a brand new set of Tim Holtz' Distress Oxide Inks and I have just started to play with them. I used the inspiration photo to choose the colors to sponge on white paper (Bristol Smooth) and then spritzed with water. I didn't mess with it too much because I loved how vibrant the colors were.  I stamped the flowers from Number Of Years in Daffodil Delight, Mint Macaron, Sweet Sugarplum and Flirty Flamingo and added a sentiment from Avant-Garden.

I am hoping our snow is gone by Easter because I am so ready for spring weather! But if spring is delayed we may just have a few getaway days planned in Cocoa Beach!


Karren has some great inspiration for us again this week at Fusion!  Hope you play along!

    Beautiful! Such a pretty floral image and that background is amazing! I haven't ventured into those inks yet....I am afraid if I do, my pocketbook will be in big trouble! I hope you get rid of that snow too!!!

    Oh, so pretty! I love those colors across your background panel. Perfect CAS card! And I'm not sure if I should hope that spring arrives soon for you or hope that it doesn't because a little trip to Cocoa Beach sounds pretty nice! ;)

    Oooh those distress oxides look fabulous! I got my set last weekend and haven't had a chance to open them yet. Hoping to have a go later on this evening. Gorgeous card and such beautiful colors.

    I'm so jealous that you've got some of those inks. They are definitely on my wish list! They are so vibrant on your card!

    I have heard so much about these new inks, but have yet to try them myself.
    Love the colours and your card is so pretty.
    I too am over this winter weather and am looking forward to some warmth.

    This is beautiful, Linda! Such a sweet image you've used for the focal point. And that cheerful strip of colors is great to showcase the flowers.
