April Snow:)
Tulips have popped through  the ground and here comes another snow fall.



April Snow

The tulips now are pushing up
like small green knuckles through the ground
The grass is young and doubtful yet.
The robin takes a look around
and if you listen you can hear
April laughing with a windy sound.
...............................................................................................

Thinking of spring here is a little taste of what spring should can be like.

                         Here is more of a masculine layout, using no pinks or frills.
                                     
 What is so funny about this layout is when I finished it I looked at it and what do I see
pink and purple on my words live and life. Oh well......

As Mother day  is just around the corner I have made 2 Layouts to honor my Mom

Mom

A Mother's love is a wonderful
thing you could never live without
it and it will always be there when you need it.
                                                    
"If Roses grow in Heaven"

It Roses grow in Heaven Lord,
please pick a bunch fro me. Place them in my Mother's arms
and tell her they're from me.

Tell her that I love her and miss her.
and that when she turns to smile,
place a kiss upon her cheek
and hold her for awhile.

Because remembering her is easy,
I do it every day,
but there's an ache within my heart
that will never go away.
 
                                  Happy Mother's Day... Mom
                                       Love you now and forever.
                                           Mary

Hello:)

Hello,
 I have so much to you show I'm not sure where to start. So bare with me, we'll get started.

Over at From Screen 2 Scrap we are featuring the movie poster of ..." the perks of being a wallflower". Fantastic movie :)


The Perks of being a Wallflower
(Suggested by Dale Tiernan)


1pt = A bit of Green Cardstock somewhere on your page.

2pts = Black Title


3 pts = Bricks (Stencil, mask, handmade from pp, painted)
 
 
Here is my take on this poster.
The Perks of a college Life

I really like how this turned out. What I did was use the brick wall stencil with texture paste, then I brushed brown ink to make the bricks look brown.
