Spring IS on the way – let’s say that 3 times each day until Friday, March 20th okay?! In the meantime we can play with our stamps and paper and create our own spring-themed projects – like this card.

BUILD YOUR OWN BOUQUET FOR SPRING!
Have you checked out the Build a Bouquet Project kit yet?

The Irresistibly Yours Specialty Paper that you can get as a Free choice during Sale-A-Bration is quite simply – beautiful. I made this pretty gift box as a thank you to Nadine for hosting a party last week with it. I used the Brayer to add colour to bring out the design which is just […]

PRETTY PETALS
Have you checked out the Painted Petals stamp set yet? I haven’t used it much so decided to give it some love for this card.
