Four Seasons Challenge - SPRING

Hello Friends

Over at the Four Seasons Challenge Blog,
our theme this month is . . .

Anything Goes - SPRING

check out this fabulous inspiration board created to help inspire you . . .

As you may have guessed, I was inspired by the flags in the lower left corner for today's creation. I had several images die cut from recycled contribution cards sitting on my desk and this image jumped out and said 'Pick Me!' lol

With Memorial Day approaching, I created this card with friends of ours from Michigan in mind! I'll be popping it into the mail for them as she always comments on how much she enjoys receiving my cards. She's a big card sending person ... in fact, she is far better at sending out cards than I am!

I've used an older Cuttlebug embossing folder for the white panel and my sentiment is from the Pink Fresh 'Perfect Sentiments' stamp & coordinating die set. Unfortunately, these are both sold out at the time of this post write up.

I've stamped & die cut several from this set in a variety of colors so when one is needed, it's all set and ready to add to my card.

If you haven't checked out our new FOUR SEASONS CHALLENGE BLOG (a monthly seasonal themed challenge) yet, PLEASE pop over and join in the fun. And don't forget our latest challenge blog adventures ...

As always . . .

What a beautiful colorful card you have created. The flag and the bird are just lovely together and makes for a gorgeous card front. The sentiment is great and it makes me want this set!

Oh, my! Your card is exceptionally striking with the bird, garden, and flag. Your blue card base is an exact match. I love sending cards and your friend will love receiving this!
