Totallyawake4-life: Throwback Thursday

Welcome to another edition of Throwback Thursday a chance for me to challenge myself to pull an ole favourite from my stash and play with it and some of my new goodies.

Today’s card design was inspired by playing along to several challenges. My colour palette was inspired by The Card Concept Colour palette and mood board #CC225 which inspired me to bring out my Flowering Rain Boots stamp and die set and Lost Lagoon, Darling Duckling, Calypso Coral and Bubble Bath. The Paper Players #PP777 has a clean and simple challenge using Florals I have chosen Tulips in my Boots. Addicted to CAS has a garden theme and what’s more gardening than rubber boots filled with flowers! Sweet Stampin’ challenge to use Plaid/Tartan in my design and the Forever Plaid embossing folder is perfect to add some texture. And finally I was inspired by Festive Friday Easter Inspo list #FF0205 to use Pastel colours, Buttons, Ribbon, Rabbits and an Easter Greeting in my design.

I’m also getting inky with new product Notes of Spring March’s Product of the Month stamp set and the Greetings for You ephemera sentiment set and Bubble Bath ribbon.

Love how it came together - lots of texture and colours of spring make for a happy card - in my mind when I was envisioning my design the boots were much smaller so the reality wasn’t as much clean white space left for the clean and simple design elements but I did try so give myself an A for effort … the clean and simple design is definitely a more challenging one to master but I will keep trying!
