Four Way Bloomin' Love Card

This card was a blast!  I opened my email and found splitcoast stampers had a new tutorial out that lent itself nicely to what I was planning this week.  Check here for the instructions.  There is also a nice video tutorial if you are a visual person.

I thought my bow (see picture) was too large so I went online for a refresher on bow tying with the use of a fork (click here) and love the smaller bow.  It was fast and much easier than trying to tie the bow by hand.

Snowman punch art and Shamrock punch art

Hello!  It is a good day to live in Missouri; my mother said that Iowa had lots of snow over the past 24 hours.  Brrr...their temps were below freezing and we were running around without jackets yesterday!

A few days ago I made a cute little 3x3 card for St. Patrick's Day; I also made a larger version to send to my grandmother; I wish that I had not run out of the Lucky Limeade In Color brads for the center of the shamrock.

Both of my grandmothers (paternal and maternal) were born hours apart and on the same day...leap year day!  Below is one of the cards I made as Grandma S's birthday gift; she loves sending out cards for each specific holiday.  Keep posted for the cards I made for Grandma Dixie.

Colors:
Lucky Limeade
Whisper White

Goodies:
Snowburst impressions folder
Big Shot
Full Heart punch

This card is for the demonstrator swap via mail.  The theme was winter punch art and I fell in love with this little guy when Julie emailed me about finding this one.  I combined different ideas to make the card uniquely mine.  (-:  It looks like the snowman is looking up at you...cute!!!
