More Spring Projects with Samantha, Melinda, and Kristen

First things first, I have a winner to announce from last week's "The Mr. & Mrs." giveaway. Thank you all so much for your comments. And the lucky winner is ...

Congratulations! Please email your full name and mailing information (including phone number for shipping purposes) as well as your choice of Pebbles collection to pebblesincdt(at)gmail(dot)com and put "Free For All Winner" in the subject line.

Design team member Kristen Swain created this adorable piece of springtime decor.  Here's what Kristen had to say ... "What is more spring then sweet soft colors and cute little birds. I decorated the outside of the frame first, then I removed the insert and added more decor to that, for a shadow box look. I hand cut my felt, but you could do that with a diecut machine or deco scissors. I love that the Pebbles Baby line coordinates so well with the Happy Go Lucky collection, I added some of the ribbon and letters to my frame. This pretty frame will be a great addition to your spring home decor! "

Design team member Melinda Spinks created a colorful springtime layout and even included a sketch for us to follow along!  Here's what Melinda had to say ... "Being in Australia means that our seasons are opposite, so when a Spring assignment comes up - I'm already outside sweeping up falling Autumn leaves. However, there was no issue with thinking Spring when I opened the new Happy Go Lucky collection and spied all the gorgeous spring colours and patterns. I instantly took a shine to the sweetest crepe paper flowers and knew they had to feature prominently on my next project and so set to task working a design around them. The photo is my daughter and her bff - best friend forever, they've been inseparable ever since they started school together and still remain joined at the hip and their smiles were perfect for the Happy Go Lucky Spring theme!"

Design team member Samantha Sibbet also create a sweet springtime layout.  Here's what Samantha had to say ... "Happy Go Lucky is my favorite Pebbles line ever!  I can't get enough of the bright colors and fun patterns.  I think orange and pink are perfect together.  For the stitched clouds, I used a paper piercer and poked the outline of the cloud on the patterned paper, from there I just hand stitched with crochet thread."
