A March resolution

New Year is usually the time for resolutions, but now I'm making a March resolution. When 365 cards first started I more or less kept up with every day's challenge, but last year I failed miserably. So I'm making a new start with their new year from 1 March (although, of course, I'm already three days behind - lol!).

So this card is for the white space sketch for 365 day 1 (I just turned it on its side):

As it's a 'white space' card it is, of course, clean and simple, using the lovely Leaping sheep border stamp by Inca, coloured with copics, and a PM sentiment stamp.



This is also for:

Stamp it crazy: spring beaver - use a spring animal
Crazy challenge 56: here comes spring
Incy wincy 83: spring is in the air
Crazy amigo: spring is in the air
Everybody art 131: spring
Oldie but goodie 13: spring is in the air (the oldie is the sentiment stamp)
Fab n funky 62: spring into action
Cute card Thursday 154: signs of spring
Delightful: welcoming spring

Salt: Attitude

It was Stacy's turn to choose the topic for today's new challenge on Salt - you can read what she wrote here.

My LO is simple, using a piece of K & Co Urban Rhapsody as the background, superimposed with some cut out birds from another of the Urban Rhapsody papers. 'Attitude' was stamped using PM alphabet stamps and coloured with burnt umber copic (the paper for this and the other wording came out of my scraps box - it's one of K & Co papers).

The self-portrait photo is terrible, but that's just right for this project - I used the computer's built-in webcam (had to have a few attempts).

The writing says:

My attitude should be respectful, cooperative, accountable, humble, helpful, encouraging, loyal. Not resentful, defiant or disrespectful. (Hebrews 13:17, 1 Peter 2:13-15)

Please go and have a look at what the rest of the DT has done for this topic - and we would love to see any crafting response you make - just leave us a comment so we can come and have a look.
