It's time to hop along with the ICS April Blog Hop and this month we are celebrating Spring with the theme, "Spring Is Sprung". Our talented Design Team members will be sharing their projects and ideas to help you get creative.
When I think of Spring and flowers, it reminds me that Mother's Day is less than a month away. I decided to show some love to some of my retiring products to create this beautiful card design that requires minimal stamping and no coloring. The Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper has so many stunning floral designs that are perfect for creating lovely Spring projects. By mixing and matching products, it's amazing what you can create.

Flowers & Leaves die cut using the Blossoming Happiness Dies
This beautiful Mother's Day card is a wonderful combination of die cutting and designer series paper. The flowers and leaves have been die cut from one of the sheets of designer series paper that coordinates with the Blossoming Happiness Dies. The detailed background was created using the Split Card Textures Dies and I framed it with the large frame die from the Fabulous Frames Dies, using the Brushed Gold Metallic cardstock to step up the design. For the sentiment, I heat embossed the image from the Celebrating You stamp set with Gold embossing powder to coordinate with the frame. To complete the card design, I added several Brushed Brass Butterflies for a subtle touch of bling. This card is perfect for creating beautiful cards quickly and without the fuss of coloring images. So many of the products I used are retiring, so if you would like to order them, I recommend doing it soon to avoid missing out.
