These are the details that Laura Jean sent: It is time for the March Duel! Like most of you (except our friend Kelly who lives in Miami), I am so ready for spring and summer. One of the many signs of spring is rain and umbrellas, and as March is "National Umbrella Month" we are going with an umbrella theme this month.
I really like all of the papers that LJ sent--they were from a Cosmo Cricket line that I had not seen before. Birds and mushrooms and Gingko leaves and fun shapes! Laura Jean also sent a manila folder and asked us to use it as a base. I struggled with a design with the folder, so I decided to use a punch I have to make a background for the sentiment that looks like a file folder to me. Hope that is OK..................
Image/Sentiment—Unity Itty Bitty Rain or Shine
Paper—Stampin' Up Early Espresso, Pear Pizzazz, Crisp Cantaloupe; Cosmo Cricket Earth Love-Relive Designer Paper and Journal Card

Your card has such spring feel to it! I love the colors and layout you created. The sentiment tag is so cute and place well.
ReplyDeleteHi Barb! It's so much fun "dueling" with you! The colors you used on the image, the cardstock on the image and sentiment panels and the brad, ribbon and button all coordinate so perfectly with that gorgeous dsp you used for the background. I love that paper! And then you topped it all with the clever use of dsp and journaling card on the inside. Great job!!
