I am so pleased with how this month's ATC has turned out. It really says 'Spring' to me.
The background is blue acrylic paint with white clouds, then branch shapes painted on. I used texture paste through a blossom stencil, which I painted in shades of pink once dry. Tiny gold glitter accents add a bit of sparkle.
The gemstones are kyanite, rose quartz, peridot, chrysoprase, kunzite, fluorite and blue lace agate. The gemstone of the month charm should be diamond (which I don't have) or clear quartz, which I used instead.
The back is decorated with the April rhyme and photos of primroses and daisies from the garden.
I think this could be my favourite card so far. On to May!
Edited to add:
Here is a (rather dark - apologies) photo of the seasonal tree as it is at the moment. It has wooden bird and flower pegs together with my felt flowers and birds too. It will become an Easter tree shortly. Chris made the tree shape for me and decorating it is something I enjoy as I mark the seasons.
