Morning Peeps, it's mid month inspiration time at Stamping Sensations and We Love Stamping challenges where we have Spring themes along with the usual Anything Goes. We have prizes from Buddly Crafts and Lisa Horton crafts.
Above a tag using AALL and Create Tag it Yourself (27). The bloom is A&C Hellebore (1063) and a little squirrel, both stamped onto offcuts and cut out. The trellis is from Spellbinders and the sentiment stamped onto another snippet and heat embossed with detail white. I am popping over to the Snippets Playground with this one as there were lots of snippets, although I don't have a photo of them, so maybe a spell in the naughty corner? Ellie had a new challenge where she would like to see Anything from the Garden, we have both Hellebore and Squirrels so this should fit the brief.
This one uses one of my many Penny Black Poppy stamps, this one Spontaneous Joy (40-597) inked direct to stamp with Ecoline brush pens and stamped onto an oxide background. The die frame is I think JND but no longer have the packing. One of my own sentiments.
Another gently hint to keep your eyes open for news of a new challenge, can say no more until 1st April.

Great layout on your tag with the sweet squirrel too. Those poppies are gorgeous on the second card, love them on the envie too.
Beautiful card and tag Brenda, love the stamps especially the little squirrel and stunning poppies. Wish my hellebore looked as healthy and vibrant as the one on your tag, don't know why but it looks a bit sad this year!

Beautiful tag and card Brenda,the colours are gorgeous
These are wonderful and I do like the black accents to make the colours "pop" xx
Two great cards, love cheeky creature in the first one. Have a great day. Anesha
2 gorgeous spring cards, although bit too early for Poppies down here, no sign of them even popping their heads through the ground yet....they are sensible as the wind has been bitterly cold this week. The new challenge sounds intriguing x

Lovely cards and very spring like. I particularly like the effect on those poppies. It looks like you have painted them. I haven't used that technique for a long time xx
AH! Hellebores, we have a dark burgundy and a white one, both in flower now, your tag is lovely with the flowers on a framed background with the cute squirrel. The poppies are beautiful on the lime background, and another lovely frame for them. Beautiful cards Brenda. x
What a fabulous hellebore tag you’ve brought to the Playground. No naughty corner for you . . . . it is not compulsory to take a photo of your snippets, only to mention those that were used on your project.
Your poppy card is so pretty.
Thanks for coming to play in the Snippets Playground. See you up in the newly cleaned treehouse shortly. Thanks for bringing the steamer along. xxx
Two beautiful makes Brenda. Wow I love that tag. So much to catch the eye.
Two beautifully done projects Brenda, such great details on the tag and wonderful way to showcase the beautiful poppies on the second project. So happy to see you at the first Garden Party, we too have squirrels in the garden and they are such a joy!
Happy first day of spring!!
Two gorgeous pieces of work Brenda, both so refreshing.

Your creations truly capture the essence of spring, blending intricate details with vibrant hues. The hellebore tag is beautifully crafted, and the poppy card radiates warmth and joy, perfectly embodying the season's spirit.
Goregous work as always B! I adore the tags you used - then I ask myself how many more dies do I need - sitting formly on hands here! Wonderful Hellebores - Lenten Roses is the more common form of their names and I totally love them! Always look for them appearing in our front garden as a sure sign of Spring!
Hugs
