Like a Crafter Possesed

Hello.  Welcome.  Someone turned the rain on again so I feel no guilt if I spend the day crafting away.  Do you ever read a good book and when you put it down you feel like you are waking up?  That's what's happened with this card!  I picked some stamps I wanted to use and after some intense concentration and fussy cutting discovered that the stamps I was going to use lay un-inked and this Pandoro Girl from the Spring Girls set had appeared instead!!  It's all a bit surreal, but I like the finished project so happy dancing all the way........  


I used PaperArtsy JOFY stamp JM34 and stamped with DI Barn Door, Festive Berries and Worn Lipstick.  I spritzed, too much! too much! and dabbed frantically at the sloppy result and quite like the faded flowers/tinted background effect.  The girl is, as mentioned, from Panduro's Spring Girl set coloured with promarkers.  The sentiment is PaperArtsy from their Bllom set.  I added a couple of pieces of pink organza and some pink ric rak.

    Yes and Yes to books and crafting. The focus is there and then you finish. Your card is super sweet and perfect with the weather just starting to act like spring and time to get outside. Thanks for playing along with us this week in our Anything Goes Challenge at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge.
