Hello Stampers!
OK, so maybe the first “official” day of spring isn’t until tomorrow, but that didn’t stop me from bringing some of the flowers into my life.
I love tulips! But it’s ironic, I don’t have any bulbs planted in my yard. Each fall, when I think I “should” plant them in preparation for spring, it just doesn’t get done. I’ll have to feed my love by heading over to the flower department at the grocery store!
Here’s a card I created for tonight’s Easter/spring class. Tulips grow in so many vivid colors I couldn’t decide which color to make. With Stampin’ Up!’s large color selection, the choices are almost endless. (I’ve actually experimented with a number of other colors to create more cards!).
But tonight, we’ll be using Strawberry Slush and Pear Pizazz. The Melon Mambo 1/8-inch taffeta ribbon just adds another pop of color. I’d also like to experiment with putting a splash of Crystal Effects on top of the flowers. I’d be they’d be even more beautiful.
Be back tomorrow — when it’s officially spring!
