Spring has finally arrived and I hear the birds chirping in between all the rain we've had.
Give your Stampin Up 
I hope you had a wonderful Easter! We went to an Easter egg hunt Saturday morning and yesterday I cooked dinner for the family. The Easter bunny was very good to Brandon. He was so excited to go through his basket and look at all his goodies!
Let your patterned paper do all the work for you! I created this card using the earthy Botanical Gazette Designer Series Paper from the current Stampin' Up! Occasions Mini Catalog. The only stamping here was the sentiment, butterfly, and circle piece inside the scallop circle. TO ORDER STAMPIN' UP! 
Here is a quick and easy birthday card. Loads of Love and Loads of Love Accessories are all you need from Stampin' Up! to create some fun and easy cards for any occasion. 
Last month I went out of town and visited a scrapbook store who was offering make n' takes while I was there. I haven't been to a card class in years and it was very refreshing to learn new techniques and play with new tools. It's just amazing how the card making/scrapbooking industry just keeps growing. You can never get bored with this hobby!
