Oh my gosh...it's been awhile...do you really think I'll remember how to even do this?? Okay, so I was inspired by the challenge at
http://whimsicalwednesdays.blogspot.com/ to make a spring or Easter layout with a bug and or a critter. So, I designed this double page 12x12 layout. I was able to use some Basic Grey letters for Spring that I've had for years. I used a combination of Close to My Heart and Coordinations papers, Disney's Happily Ever After and the Pooh and Friends cartridges for the clouds, butterfly, bird, and flower. I inked everything with Jumbo Java ink. I also used a varitey of Cuttlebug folders in my Sizzix Texture Boutique. I decided to wait on the photo mats, as I always make my boys matchy-matchy for the annual Easter photo; I thought depending on how it turns out, I might try to print it larger and the mat size will depend on the pix. Sorry for the bad photos. We are way overdue for a new camera and are holding out for a model that's too expensive right now!! :) Ok, here goes my try at posting and linking the photos! I hope you have a wonderful Spring!!

| After I embossed the clouds, I sanded them down to reveal the color from behind in the Coordinations cardstock. |

| Again, not the best photo, but you can see the little dots on my cute birdie! :) |

| Butterfly & flower--you can kind of see the sparkle on the butterfly from the paper as well as the texture. |
