Verve Diva Inspirations March Challenge

Sunday Funday - today was a day to play! Heavenly!

 I didn't even get dressed today! It was glorious! To be able to stay in my comfy p.j's all day was a total treat - and while I would love to say I got to craft the day away in my studio, I found some balance with a bit of chores like laundry, mopping floors, and dusting. 

I had some crafty free-time and decided to play with some of my spring goodies in my stash! 

I designed this super-sweet tag today for the Verve March challenge!

 ( I am SO SO happy they are bringing back their monthly inspiration challenges - because they were one of my FAVES!) 

I decided for this project I wanted to make a fun spring tag! I found a sweet little

stamp from Unity called Little Bunny For You - and inked him up, using minimal colouring with my Zigs! I added a wee bit of Fun Stampers Journey silks for that vibrant touch of yellow!

I really wanted to  play with some stencilling,

 so I chose a Tim Holtz stencil from the #26 collection. I used distress ink in Shabby Shutters and 

Twisted Citron and lightly sponged the back ground on my tag. I inked up the sentiment on a circle cut with SU!'s stitched circle dies and also dug in to my SU! stash for those adorable dragonflies.  I had a piece of scrap watercolor paper that still had a splash of color from my Ken Oliver colorbursts to create them using the Detailed Dragonfly thinlits. 

A bit of burlap fibre ribbon from my stash finished it all off!

 I have a lovely array of shades of green - it made me happy to think Spring is around the corner here soon. (I hope!)

Thanks for stopping by - be sure to let me know you were here! Leave me some love below - I would love to stop on your blog and say hello!

Love, Peace n' Ink
