Spring Inspiration Challenge at DZ Doodles

Welcome back!  It's Wednesday, and time for another challenge at DZ Doodles,  Lots of inspiration from my teamies today, and a beautiful freebie image to get you started on your cards for spring.  Oh, and before I forget, there is also an announcement.....changes to the rules and an opportunity for a Guest Designer spot!

Now for my little project using this week's image.  Well, what do you think?  Instead of a card, I've made one of the corner bookmarks I've been seeing on a number of blogs.  I am pleased to say, it was soooo easy to make...and practical too!   I might just have to try it out....

This time I've worked with Pro-Markers by Letraset, using my Prisma pencils for a bit of added shading.  The papers are all from my scrap box, and as you can see, I've used my Nestie die to frame the image and my MS punch for a bit of lace border.

There are a number of tutorials on the web showing how to make these bookmarks, but if you have any questions just leave me a comment.   Now.....I think I will go find a good book....

Thanks for stopping by, and I do hope you will enter our challenge this week at DZ Doodles.  So head on over and check it out.....we would love to see your creative talents too!

Some challenges I'll be entering:

Card-ideas - Anything But a Card
Stamp Scrap and Doodle - Spring has Sprung
