9 March 2009 -- Laura's Sketch 21 (2 Sketches 4 You)

We are having superb spring weather in Houston! I can hardly sit still indoors long enough to make a card since our "spring" lasts only a couple of weeks! The azaleas are in full & colorful bloom across the city and early bulbs, like freesia, are spreading a glorious, sweet scent across the gardens. Aah! What could be more wonderful than spring??


Feeling the wonders of spring, I've made a birthday card for my friend Donna using flowers & spring colors! The purple & gold cardstock are from Club Scrap, the butterfly template from The Crafter's Workshop, gold ink from Tsukineko, vellum/patterned paper/white ribbon are unknown, the flower was cut from a Sizzix die, the bird from a Quickutz die, black ink from Palette (hybrid) and Staz-On, stamp and pearly things (a technical term!) from Stampin' Up, and last, but not least, the twine is from some Chinese Vermicelli that I got at the supermarket last week to make a Rachel Ray soup recipe! Gotta love recycling!



Thanks for taking a look at my little blog.
