Clear Cardstock


Using clear cardstock has been on my "To Try" list for quite some time now.  Nichole pushed me over the edge with her Make It Monday challenge this week.  She also used one of my favorite stamp sets - Springtime Doodles!

You can see her video and play along if you click here

Here's my card for her challenge today:

 I used New Leaf polka dot paper and cardstock to create the grass.  I adhered it to the front, along with the sun, cut in Summer Sunrise and some A*Muse gingham paper.

I stamped the inside panel with images from Springtime Doodles, colored them and blended them with a pencil.  Love my colored pencils!!

Here's the inside:

I took inspiration from looking out my window -clear, blue skies, beautiful green trees and flowers blooming!  Spring has sprung in Texas!

Thanks for visiting My Happy Place!

Love how much dimension you created with the layers and by putting some of the elements on the outside and some on the inside. My favorite is that layered grass.
