Challenge #3: Spring Inspired: Let Spring help inspire your next project!
Technically, this was supposed to be my challenge for the reveal on the CKCB blog, but the timing just didn't work out for me this month. So, I figured that the blog hop would be the ideal place to share it.
When I saw the challenge was to be inspired by spring, I went over what excites me about spring in my head. I came up with lights, flowers, field trips...I took the only floral paper that was in my kit, and some photos from last year's class field trip with the twins. I still am feeling inspired by Wilna and her videos, so I embraced the artsy, whimsical elements, and mounted part of the title on a swipe of the orange paint from my kit, and painted a journaling spot, as well. I used several embellishment clusters on the page, so I was able to incorporate a few of the vellum pieces, a chalkboard journaling spot, some buttons, brads, and sparkly bits. I anchored the whole page with a strip of patterned paper, and some of the silver glitter tape.
Thank you so much for stopping by my blog. I hope you enjoyed today's page, be sure to visit all of the members on the hop for a look at what everyone has been making with their kits this month-you are sure to be inspired!
