We are getting closer and closer to Spring
which brings us to bright and happy colors!
We don't get lots of sun here in Michigan in the winter
so I have to make my own sunshine by creating pretty
Spring cards!
I started with a white card stock base,
that I embossed lines about 1/4" all around each side.
I used Memory Box Open Studio Stitched Squares on a bright yellow design paper.
A heart was cut from Cheery Lynn Designs Heart To Heart Doily.
(Don't you just love that hearts can be used year round?)
For the flowers, I used my Color Bursts,
then cut them out with PoppyStamps Marcelle Flower.
This die reminded me a lot of a Crocus.
I glittered the stamens yellow.
I finished with a glittered Crafters Companion Fluttering Butterfly.
Added a ribbon bow and a sentiment of "Just Because".
