Spring Blooms & peony branch

Hi all! Here is a card that I made for the Kit of the Month Wednesday over at the PWCO Blog.


I used the adorable Spring Blooms stamp from the A Day in the Life of Abigail C collection.


The colored cardstock, patterned paper and ribbon are from the April PaperCard Kit. I love the springy colors in this kit! The orange cardstock is punched with the Apron Lace punch. The sentiment is from Hero Arts.


I made this card for the poppystamps blog the other day. The stamp that I used is peony branch and the patterned paper is from the Frond collection by Memory box. The sentiment is also from Memory Box.

That's all for today. Have a lovely day! =)



Thanks for stopping by!

Both stunning cards Alice ;)
I wish I could grow cute heart flowers like those, in my garden! And your soft peony design is adorable. Reminds me of the peonies in my wedding bouquet.
Hugs, Ruth S

Ooh! Loving the colors on the first card... of course both are as sweet as can be! Hee, I just read your comment. yes, I stamped the bee image on a stamp block, you know those old shadow blocks with no images. Then used the mirror image to stamp on paper again. the image wasn't as crisp as I'd like so I went over it with a fine black pen. HTH!
