Spring Time Creative Inking Blog Hop

Our 2nd Creative Inking Blog Hop and the theme is Spring has Sprung.  When I think of Spring, I think of Tulips.  I know many regions have already seen Tulips in their gardens, but in Kamloops, we still have had signs of winter in the hills.  Tulips are just starting to poke through the ground.

So I am all about Tulips in my Paper Crafting.  The stamp set, Love is Kindness, is the perfect set for me. When I was at Leadership, I did a swap with Sue Lehrer.  You just came from her Blog.  She gave me a T Card.  I took that design and made this card.

I used the Aqua Painter and colored it with the ink pads. Supplies are listed below for this card. We also did another project in club using this set and the Aqua Painter.  I thought this could be used for Easter place settings.

I do participate in a demonstrator swap and I received this wonderful card from Ellie Blake.  I love this idea of cutting and folding.

She used the Blendabilities before Stampin' Up pulled the product because of their high quality expectations.  The two samples above show that you can get a different coloring effect with the Aqua Painter

Now check out Susan Campfield's Blog on her take of Spring.  You won't be disappointed.
