WELCOME, WELCOME STAMPERS AND PAPER CRAFTERS TO OUR SPRING BLOG HOP!
WE HAVE A FUN BUNCH OF GALS PARTICIPATING IN THIS HOP AND I THINK YOU ARE ENJOYING ALL THE CREATIVITY JUST OOOOOOOOZING FROM EACH BLOG, AREN'T YA?
You should have arrived here from Tamera's blog. If you are just starting the hop, no worries, it will loop around and you will be able to visit all of us each day this ENTIRE WEEK.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE spring, don't you?? The best time of the year I think, with the birds nesting, the butterflies emerging, and the FLOWERS!! So many beautiful flowers. That is what has inspired us to do our spring blog hop - FLOWERS.
For my first card, I used the Blossom Petals Builder Punch and Build a Blossom stamp set to create each petal of my flower. I stamped some on the card itself and punched some out after stamping on a scrap piece of cardstock. I then glued the middle down and bend the petals to make it look more real by holding it bent with a glue dot.
A cute brad in the middle sure helps it look pretty, doesn't it? And that sweet pink 1/8" ribbon too.

ReplyDeleteYour sweet pink flower card is just perfect for spring! I love it and I agree that bending the petals makes the flower come to life! Sweet little accents, too! :)

Sweet card Jennifer, I'm a big fan of dimensionals and popping things up, love the way they enhanced the flower!
ReplyDeleteJennifer,
ReplyDeleteI don't have this punch yet, but I will have to have it after looking at this beautiful card. I love everything about it. I love when my daffodils bloom. It is a sure sign that winter is making an exit. They are in full bloom here. TFS and I can't wait to see tomorrows posting.
