A Springy Bittybloom

This week's Bellariffic Challenge was a color challenge, from my sweet and oh, so madly talented friend Jodi! It was fun to reach for these springy and bright colors. I can't wait to see what the girls did today!

I reached for my little Poppy Bittybloom, and a piece of watercolor paper and got to work. The patterned paper has orange in it, but I decided to go for a big POP of orange by gathering my wide width orange grosgrain. I secured it all in place with a length of button twine threaded through a little olive button.

Head on over to Blogabella today to see samples from all the Babes, all of you in blogland. Be sure to leave a comment on Em's post for a chance at winning Bella Bucks!

Next week's challenge is inspired by the Olympics (my seven year old is obsessed, I can't drag him away from the TV!) and to create a winter, or winter sports themed card.

As I'm a ski bunny on the slopes with the boys this week, I bet you can guess what sort of card I'll have for you next Friday!

Have a wonderful weekend!! Keep your fingers crossed that I can keep up with my two little ones on the slopes. Its sad that my seven year old is a *much* better skier than me. I should enjoy this one year that I have better form than my four year old, I bet he'll lap me by the end of the season....

Will your card feature a mommy with a broken leg on crutches?

little kids on skies are terrors because they have no fear. Have a swig or two of liquid fortitude and your form may improve, or at least you'll think it did.
