Lillies Dare to bloom...

{{2nd post... Please scroll down for Flutter by Wednesday... Thank you!!}}

Spring is in the air... and my flower garden is beginning to bloom... i LOVE the spring colors and spring weather.... it's so crisp and pretty... just like Whimisical Wednesdays - the Diedrich Dare #27.... Nicky is daring you to use his blooming sketch here.... hehe, that's what i thought when i saw his challenge...

We dare you to play along with us this week... use the sketch below and link your creation to Mr. Linky on the Dare blog... if uploading to an online gallery, please use keyword DDSC27...
We send another big Thank you to the Character Cafe for being our March sponsor... i've again used one of the images from them... and yes, flowers are blooming... hehe!

i used the Lillies digi image again this week... it's so versatile and could be used for anything... perfect for Easter, or Mother's day... or even thank you cards and get well wishes... i'll let you decide... this week, the sketch shouted flowers to me, so i pulled out some pretty flower DP and a my dahlia nesties.... oh and glitter and bling... can't forget those... and here i am bringing spring right to your screen! i'm so sorry for the bad picture... the lighting in the room this was taken in isn't the best, so the rhinestones look a little bland... =D

Hop on over to the Dare blog and check out what Daredevilin' Sara has got going on for you... you'll find a full list of players this week there too... or you could check them out by using the links on my sidebar... can't wait to see what you'll be springing up with Nick's sketch!! See yah at the Dare!!

Spring into CHARACTER!

i used Bertie and Friends... a cutie who is ready for Spring... flowers are growing, the butterfly is fluttering and Bertie is as happy as can be... of course most of you know what my favorite color is... LOL, so of course Bertie was going to reflect that today... =D i glittered the grass with some green stickles... yellow glitter glue on the flower centers... baby blue stickles on Bertie's chest and a touch of diamond stickles on the butterfly wings... i guess i'm just stickled today... hehe... couldn't help but bring out some cheerful spring colored DP to accent this cute patootie...
