SugarPea Sketch and Spring Friends!

Hi Everyone!
Happy Wednesday!  We are really enjoying the spring weather here, complete with yard work, LOL!  So many trees are blooming and everything is greening up.  I love this time of year!
My card for today's sketch is a little bit of spring~


 This is the first sketch for April~


The sketch was perfect for this sweet image.  The image is from the What's Mew? Stamp Set.  It is colored with Copics and fussy cut out.  As usual, I used the Zig Zag Stitched Rectangle Dies to die cut my mats.  The window scene is popped up on dimensionals.  I added color to the card on the card base, sponging on some orange and deep pink inks; then spattered the sponged area with water and spritzed it with Mr. Huey's Calico White spritz.
To mimic the curve of the window, I added a bit of doily.  I wasn't quite happy with the end result, so decided to emboss the base panel with a polka dot embossing folder.  My go-to SSS sequins finish off the card.
Ready for some more inspiration?  Check out the Design Team's gorgeous work.  AND...We have Kim Wiener guesting with us this month!
