This week we\u2019re welcoming back the lovely Cassie Lynch<\/a> into the Designer Spotlight. If you haven’t visited her blog before then you are in for a real treat!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cassie<\/a> is ready for Spring and flowers. She used a Simon Says Stamp; Quilted Hearts Background Cling Stamp<\/a> and a Floral Garden Clear Stamp Set<\/a>. The flowers were colored with Tim Holtz Watercolor Pencils<\/a> and the sentiment is from a Tim Holtz Tiny Text Stamp Set<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Anna-Karin<\/a> made a bright and cheerful tag this week. The circle background was made with Simon Says Stamp Mix and Match Circles stencil<\/a> and Distress Ink. The hearts were die cut from old book paper and vellum using Simon Says Stamp Sweethearts Box die set<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Barbara<\/a> continues her memory dex card calendar! For her project she used the AAll & Create Spring Sprouts dies<\/a> and the Simon Says Stamp Stained Glass Heart wafer die<\/a>. The sentiment and the stencil used in the background are both by Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous: Love Notes CMS477<\/a> stamp set and Hearts Layering Stencil mini version set 6<\/a>. Four Ranger Ink Distress ink pads for coloring, bright as requested by our challenge: Dried Marigold<\/a>, Kitsch Flamingo<\/a>, Salvaged Patina<\/a> and Shaded Lilac<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
