Fussy and Fancy Celebrates Spring with a Blog Hop and "Spring Colours" Challenge!!!

Hello and welcome to my blog!
As you may have read on the
our Spring Colours Challenge
is being hosted by our lovely
and sponsored by the
FUSSY AND FANCY GIRLS!
That would include me!
If you are arriving here from the talented Diana's blog
then you are hopping in the correct order.
If not, please go back to the
the correct order.
 
Here is my "salute" to Spring that I created for
this fun Spring challenge!!
Okay I really do need to warn you that this is very picture heavy ...REALLY...
and wouldn't you know it...one of the main lights in my craft room decided that this was the time to go on the fritz so I had to rig up all kinds of Ott Lites to finish and photograph my project...LOL!!...
please click on the first image for a closer view and slideshow...
what better way to celebrate Spring then in a park!!...
here is "Tilda Parkette" that I have created for my Tilda Town...
entrance to the park... 
 the wishing well in the center, cobblestone path with moss growing all created with gray cardstock distressed and run through Tim Holtz brick embossing folder...
 the adorable street signs and post are from Prima...
this is "Tilda with Chanel the Puppy" from the new Animals of the Year 2014 collection...
the spot lights are actually working lights from Lemax that I bought at Michael's...
the pail is a tin pail that I covered with...yes...Frantage... 
the wall fountain is from Prima...I added some butterfly paper for a more dressed look...
this is "Tilda with Inez the Bunny" also from AY14 collection... 
closer view... 
 stone walls are also made of cardstock distressed and run through Tim Holtz brick embossing folder...
this is "Tilda with Millie the Mouse" from AY14 collection... 
one of the back walls with fountain (Prima) covered in Frantage...
vine is Memory Box and flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts ...
this is "Edwin with Tin Tin the Dog"...AY14 collection... 
"Napoleon"...AY14 collection... 
"Vintage Phone Booth" is from Little London 2013 collection... 
another street sign on the back of the park...
clay pots with flowers... 
So that is "Tilda Parkette"!!  Hope that you like it...I had such a BLAST creating this and can't wait to get on to the next addition to my Tilda Town!!  Sorry for the poor lighting...I guess that's just one example of life's little tests...LOL!! I have to
tell you that I simply adore this new Magnolia collection that I bought from one of
my favourite on line stores...Magnolia-licious !!
