Spring in New York City

At a recent event called THINGS WITH WINGS, we created cards with lots of beautiful butterflies, bees and spring colors. This card uses the Butterfly Die from Stampin' Up! These are some papers that I had in my stash. I loved how all of these soft colors came together on this card.


This card used the stamp set GREAT FRIEND and INSPIRED BY NATURE. Two stamp sets that I LOVE!



BUZZIN' BY was featured on this card. I had the patterned paper in my personal stash.


At the Stampin' Up! Convention in 2008, we learned this cool and very easy technique to make a pop up card. It can be used for so many different things...bugs, numbers (BIG 5-0), martini glasses...

This is a brand new stamp set called FOREST FRIENDS available from Stampin' Up! It is one of the adorable sets available in the OCCASIONS Mini Catalog. If you would like a copy of this mini catalog, please post a comment and I will contact you. I am more than happy to put one in the mail for you.

Last night, I had so much fun stamping with Corris, Alexei, Jenny B and "Ballet" Melissa! We used the super cute stamp set, FOREST FRIENDS, on all of our cards. I loved combining the BIG SHOT TOP NOTE and the new paper from TASTE OF TEXTILES. Melissa has bunnies at home and loves them to bits. I knew she would just adore this card!







Hoot, hoot...this cute owl looks fabulous flocked and sitting on this branch. It is from the Bird & Branches DieCut for the BIG SHOT.


This card was so much fun. I got the idea for this from a card on http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/ but changed it to make it my own! I love this paper from the OCCASIONS MINI called Walk in the Park. I made the oval frame from the OVAL SCALLOP FRAME diecut for the BIG SHOT.
I am so excited for Spring and these cards show it. I hope you enjoy them! PLEASE take a moment and leave a comment. I would love to hear from you!
