North Coast Creation March Release

Welcome to the North Coast Creation March Release!  This release features some wonderful spring images that are just F*U*N to color.  I used watercolors, markers, ink pads, and even pens to color mine.  Today I'm sharing two cards I made.  Please check out the NCC blog and Design Team's pages for some eye candy.  You'll definitely feel spring coming.   


Recipe:  
Stamps:  NCC Easter Basket
Dies:  SB A2 Filigree Delight and Beaded Ovals
Accessories: Spectrum Noir markers, ribbon, water color pencils and Staedtler pens

For my second card, I fussy cut out all the flowers (I made them pink coneflowers) and popped them up for dimension; I just love the look of it going over the edge of the circle.


Recipe:  
Stamps:  NCC Hoppy Easter
Dies:  SB Standard Circles
Inks:  SU! Ballet Blue and Sage Shadow
Accessories: Spectrum Noir markers, ribbon, twine, button and Staedtler pens
