I immediately think of Easter when I think of Spring, don't you? Here's a card that Ive created with a new weave die for the background. Love how putting these dies together can mimic the look of a basket, Ive paired these with this adorable Happy Hoppers Stamp;
CARD RECIPE
The fabulous panel, background and sentiment tag cuts were all made with these NEWLY launched Creative Expressions quality Craft Dies designed by Sue Wilson.
Stamps Used: Stampabilities, House-Mouse Designs, Happy Hoppers "Hoppy Dreams" featuring "Hop-It", HMKR1026. | |
Paper: Premium Cream CS, MME ( My Mind's Eye)"Handsome" Designer PaperPad | |

The Weaved background was made by interlocking the two WEAVE diecuts together and framing over the edges with the Ornate Pierced Squares. I stamped the Bunny image three times, cut it into parts, and layered adhering with foam tape for added dimension. |

When I think of spring I think of butterflies, more butterflies, flowers and warm(er) sunny days. Occassionally Easter crosses my mind too. :) I love the card you made with the super cute mousey.
