It's the wee hours of the morning (
see, I feel Irish when I say "wee" - LOL!) to be posting but it's a special day!! Today is
Waltzingmouse Stamps' Spring Blog Hop!! If you just happened upon my blog please begin the hop on the
Waltzingmouse Stamps blog so that you don't miss a thing!
I was a bit nervous to sign up for the hop since the only requirement was to make a Spring inspired card. I don't have any of the newer Spring sets from WMS but after a bit of thought I came up with a fun little St. Patrick's Day card (
it's only a few days before Spring so that counts, right?).
The heart I used to stamp directly on dp for my shamrock is from
Oven Fresh Gingerbread Joy. The stem and Nestie-friendly frame are from
Very Vintage Labels No. 4.
The card is one of my current favorite sizes - 3.5" x 5" and I had fun rounding the corners and adding fun textures.
Thank you for hopping by!! Your next stop is
Laurie Marmon - have fun!!
