I'm ready for SPRING!

Hi, friends!  I've got 2 cards to share with you today!  They both have spring themes--one is for St. Patty's day and the other for Mother's day!  They're both relatively CAS in design and use some stamps that have never seen ink--joyous day for that rubber! ;)

Here's the St. Patty's day card~

Details~




For these fabulous challenges~




For this card, I used my NEW chevron background stamp from Stampers Best, a twine from my stash, glimmer mist, and all other supplies are by Stampin' Up!.  I colored each section of the chevron stamp to create a rainbow pattern, spritzed it with pearl glimmer mist, and then stamped.  I love how textured it looks!

Here's the Mother's Day card~

Details~




For these fabulous challenges~




For this card, I CASEd this card by my dear friend Ellen.  I've used stamps by Rubber Stamp Tapestry, rhinestones by Prima, silver ribbon from my stash, and all other supplies (including sentiment) are by Stampin' Up!.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!  I hope you've been inspired to create something fabulous and that you'll join in the fun at these wonderful challenges! HUGS to all and happy stamping! :)
