Check out this cheerful moodboard Elizabeth has for us at Just Us Girls! The team and our March guest, Michele Ferguson have oodles of inspiration for you!
I pulled a couple of the elements together to create a playful card using a cute little paintbrush from Simply Graphic.
Surgery was performed on the stamp to remove the leafy paint trail coming from the bristles. I colored them with Copics then masked off the four rectangles and colored them to coordinate. Before attaching the paintbrushes, I used a little stick stamp to add the flowers. A simple tiny tag for a small sentiment was all it needed. Kinda cute, huh!
I did forget to add a little sparkle detail to the 'metal part' of the paintbrushes before photographing. I went back in with a glittery Gelly Roll pen to take care of it!

We hope you'll join us this week.

So pretty with the pastel colors
Kinda cute?? How about REALLY CUTE?!! This is such a sweet, sweet card Lisa and totally makes me smile! I love the soft colors and those sweet little flowers are the perfect addition to the brush strokes! Hugs. :0)
Oh this is so spring-y and beautiful, Lisa.
I loved this at first glance Lisa! I am so afraid to perform surgery on my stamps in case in the future I can't line the up again. Your colors are so soft and pretty, the design with the flowers in the paint strokes so clever, and the tag to hold the sentiment, perfect!!!!
And BOOM presto ala kazam: there it is! Those tiny brushes are just adorable, Lisa! How clever that they leave behind little blossoms with each stroke! x

Those brushes are so cute, Lisa, and I love how you made the painted stripes with/for them. You do pastels so well.
I love you take on the paintbrush photo! The little flowers in the paint streaks are awesome. Fun card!
Such a perfect take on that photo in the mood board Lisa. Love the softly blended brushes and pretty flowers. Great idea to add the tag to one of the brushes.
