These are the few spring time makes from 2022. There were really only two that I made with Easter in mind. The rest I made with flowers and plants. I was really into flowers and plants last spring.
As with the other spring makes posts, if you click the title of each make below it will take you directly to the tutorial for that make. Enjoy!
The adorable Birds thinlits and Funky Stems release last spring were destined to be together. I loved them! So I made them into a fun spring mini accordion card.
This was the only other make that was specifically for Easter. I used the 3D Doily to make thee place setting cones you can fill with candies for your guests.
Like I said, I was really into fake plants last spring and wanted to use the new Stampers Anonymous stencils to make planters for my new fake plants. I'm using them again this year!
Another couple of cards that I made using the stamps released last spring from Tim Holtz and Stampers Anonymous.
Thanks again for stopping by and taking another look at some spring makes from the past.
I hope you have a very creative day!

This Tea Time Clock began as just a celebration of afternoon tea, but as
it started coming together, it began to remind me of a special
afternoon tea almost 26 years ago. I adore how this piece turned out for
the Tim Holtz Idea-ology 2023 release and it is going to be one that I
keep.
I painted Foundry Wax Guilded onto the base and rim of the Curio Clock, then attach two Collage Strips to the outside of the clock.
I made brackets and a handle out of the Adornments Silverware and covered them with Guilded and Sterling Foundry Wax as well.
The Transparency Layers have some really beautiful pieces in them, but I chose this round floral transparency for this tea time clock and I think it is perfect. As I started to assemble the shelf inside the clock, I realized it reminded me of the afternoon tea my husband and I had almost 26 years ago on the day we got engaged.
We spent the whole day together in Pasadena enjoying the Huntington Library and Gardens, afternoon tea at the Rose Tree Cottage, and ending with dinner and a musical. He asked me to marry him after breakfast so we were already engaged in this photo. The teacup ephemera in the Palette Ephemera actually looks like a tea cup my husband bought from Edmund at the Rose Tree Cottage several years ago. We had enjoyed tea there individually many times before we were dating and obviously since.
Once I realized that this piece was taking the turn from just a tea clock to a memory piece, I started adding things to go with that memory. All these Word Tags and the Heart Charm on the Hook Clasp were the perfect addition,
As was the little jam jar. The Rose Tree Cottage has their own jam blend so I had to include that and attach the little 2 Word Tag to it since the saying always goes"Tea for Two."
I think those are all the details. The video tutorial goes into more depth as to all of the things used and I have all the products I used linked below.
Thank you so very much for stopping by and I do hope you have a very creative day.
