Springtime Cards

Hello friends, Esther here sharing some spring themed cards I created with the NEW stamp sets for March! This first one features the "Sweet Little Lamb" set. I couldn't resist adding some hearts from the set to my tree, and those tiny little flowers to the vines along my fence.

Supplies and Tools:

• Sweet Little Lamb (Sweet n Sassy Stamps)
• Canson Mixed Media Paper
• Watercolor Brush Pens (Benicci)  
• Christmas Quilt Embossing Folder (Couture Creations)
• Dotted Ovals Dies (Sizzix)
• Grass, Tree, Vine Dies (Cottage Cutz)

My second card uses "Blessing in Disguise" (my new favorite stamp set!), Psalm 23 Background, and Grace So Amazing.

For this card I stamped and embossed four coneflowers. After coloring them, I fussy cut them, and trimmed the leaves off.  I cut between the petals and glued one on top of the other to form two 3D flower heads. I then punched a bunch of tiny suns, scrunched them up, and hot glued them to my flowers (If you like to see a photo of the process you're welcome to visit this post on my personal blog.)
