Rubber Boots


Hi everyone!  Every spring when the temps warm up and we get lots of rain, tiny sugar ants manage to find a way into my craft room through the weep holes in the window tracks... I'm not a big fan of ants except for the fun digi kind!  So after a morning debugging the area, I was inspired to create a spring card using two Doodle Pantry sets -- Rubber Boots and Ant Accents Color.  

The rubber boots image was paper-pieced and colored digitally.  Although not visible in the photo, the flowers were glazed and sprinkled with glitter for added sparkle and shine.  

I will be entering this card in the following fun challenges:
The Paper Girls Challenge #64 -- April Showers Bring May Flowers
Pile It On Challenge #65 -- April Showers Bring May Flowers

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a fun day!

  7. The perfect Spring card, this would look so nice out in the yard. We have had a lot of rain this April so I hope it will bring us lots of May flowers only thing is we cannot get into the yard to do anything. Have a great week.
    Hugs, Pat/♥
