Inspired By #116... hello spring!

 
With nary a stitch, I've manage to make a card that is truly Inspired By #116!  Tell me if you agree [fingers crossed!].
 
 
  • I stamped the basic shapes of the letters  H E L L O on cardstock using Altenew's Watercolor Doodles, [adding a few doodled dots with a gray pen] and used their Caps Bold Alpha Dies to cut them out. 
  • Just a tiny bit of Copic coloring in the rainbow colors of those embroidery threads, and a bit of texture from my fave SU embossing folder added some interest to my stamped sentiment - EBE 'tis the Season -
  • Completed by that sweet little enamel heart  - from Altenew, too
As always, we hope you'll find a bit of something to be inspired by and will join us, too!

This is absolutely gorgeous, Michele. Simple, light and lovely. It's hailing right now, here in NJ. Crazy times... but happy spring anyway.
