Hello again! Wow! It's already Day 3 of The Craft's Meow March 2012 Release Previews. I hope you're enjoying the previews so far. It's been an exciting few days with different challenges and a lot of prizes being given out.
Today we're introducing two, super cute mini stamp sets from Jenny Suchin. Spring is Here and Get Well Soon.
As with the past 2 days, we also have a challenge for Day 3. This time it's a color challenge. Here's the color combination and photo inspiration.
First up, for the color challenge, is my card for Spring is Here. I loved the patterned paper set from My Mind's Eye on yesterday's card so much that I used it again today. I kept this one simple. The images on this set are soooo cute!!! I didn't want to take away from them. I stamped the bee hive pattern on a panel of vintage cream cardstock and colored it in with Copic markers.
I stamped a flower image over and over and made this banner. I colored it with Copic markers and hand cut it. Then I sewed it over a strip of lace from M&J Trimming.
I die cut this tag and adhered the little bee hive that I stamped, colored and hand cut. There are several little sentiments in this set. Isn't it just cute?!!
Next up is Get Well Soon. I stamped the band aid image one after the other and made a background panel with it. I couldn't decide if I wanted to color it in or not. But then I thought it would be too busy if I colored it in, so I kept it pink and simple.
Isn't this owl image such a cutie?! It made me smile so much when I first saw it. I would like to think that it would put a smile on a sick friend's face. I layered it over a die from Limitless Layers and some strips of patterned papers.
I stamped the sentiment on a banner and adhered it on top of a Banner Borders die.
That's all I have up my sleeves for today! :)

Love the owl on the second card- it reminds me of an x-ray stamped on the black.
