Hi Everyone,
Well I'm thrilled to say that spring has finally arrived around here. I mean it's ONLY May 10th for goodness sake! LOL. I got my grass cut for the first time last week and boy was I covered in mud. Let's hope things dry off real soon so that I can tackle my flower beds.
Today's card is in honor of the spring season (my mom and grandma's favorite) and I used the newest stamps from DRS Designs. The background was created by stamping with the Three Butterflies stamp, and I also used the Polka Dot background stamp along the bottom of my pink base card.
The Spring Wording Square was colored with Copics and my pink and black checked ribbon tied it all together. Oh, and can't forget to mention the added bit of bling ;)
I guess I was in a pink and black mood (it's a classic color combo if you ask me) so my card over at the DRS Designs blog today is another pink and black beauty. Drop by for a visit to see the butterflies make another appearance.
Have a great day and thanks for dropping by!
