Scattering Bluebonnet Seeds - Kitchen Sink Stamps

Sunday afternoon I set out on an adventure to see if I could track down any Texas bluebonnets near me. Turns out I found a few scattered patches, but they gave me hope that next week the fields will be covered with blooms. I will be headed back out to check for sure!!!

Today's Kitchen Sink Stamps sponsored card is a reflection of those hopes!! Texas in the spring is heaven on earth!!

Dare to Get Dirty Week Begins Today at SCS!

The first challenge I have entered in the Dare to Get Dirty Challenge at SCS requires that paint be used on the project. This image by Hampton Arts was painted with SU Watercolor Wonder Crayons. The sentiment is from Big Wish by Verve.

 The second one required the use of kraft paper. The images are from Cowboy Hat Multi Step Clear Stamps, Cowboy Boots Multi Step Clear Stamps, and Simple Sentiments Clear Stamps by Kitchen Sink Stamps.

 And this one required fruit or vegetables. I mixed Berries Multi Step Clear Stamps and Seed Packet Clear Stamps from Kitchen Sink Stamps!

 For the Anything But a Card challenge, I used scraps of designer paper to create this bow and gift tag.
