Hello Spring

 I was lucky to have some birthday gifts, and this little die set was one of them.

I used some old SU three inch square envelopes for these thank you cards.

I used a flower head for a “sun”

Just love the simple bird

Nesting box is adorable, hung from a foliage “branch”,

and the grass is one of the flower heads snipped off

I also made a standard card using an old SU card blank.

Here’s the set…

And a photo of my snippets used..

Entering the following challenges…

Love a duck

 Spring has arrived, and the ducks are busy….

I’ve a few cards to share today.

First card is a fancy fold, that stands firm.

These are very simple, using the lovely designer paper….

Golden Honey

Using my new favourite ….Arch die set, I made a gift box,

with inspiration from erica@pinkbuckaroo.com,

I cut two arch pieces, sandwiched a hand made box in between.

Some old SU paper and bee die set…

There have been lots of busy bees in the garden,

enjoying the sunshine as much as me!

Take care and see you soon

Sometimes a simple card is best

 Sometimes a simple card is best…..

I used the masks only for the tree (not the stamps)

Grounded it with a smudge of ink, and stamped a bird

Take care and see you soon

So many candles…

 ……so little cake!

A quick sweet fun card using One More Year (SU), for the cake and “bubbles”,

plus an old designer paper that has a very similar design, or so I thought. (Bubbles and Fizz, SU).

I adhered the paper onto card front, then die cut a square peep hole.

Take care and see you soon
