Hi Crafty Friends,
Today we are sharing a Sweet Blossom Bouquet project that works for almost any occasion. All you have to do is change the sentiment and you are ready for anything.
The name of the die from Penny Black is “Cherry Blossom Creative Die” but I ignored the title and used it to make a sweet bunch of flowers.
HI Everyone,
Laurel of Simply Cardmaking by Laurel Beard is visiting today and she is sharing a wonderful card with a message of encouragement – and you know, it is always nice to get one of those from time to time! She is using the Wild Garden stamp set by Catherine Pooler.
Hi there,

Hi Friends,
Heather Telford is our guest today and she brought with her a magnificent Pink Poppies card. The colors and the softness she achieves is nothing short of gorgeous!
She is using the Spontaneous Joy stamp by Penny Black and she makes it simply glorious by using distress stains and her own special brand of magic! (Check out more of that magic on her blog!)
Oh, and just a note about the distress stains. Many of you know, the distress stains with the dauber top have been discontinued. In its place is the distress spray stain with a spray/mister top – it is the same formula. We bought up all the remaining stock of the dauber topwe could so most colors are still in stock so grab them while you can. As a color depletes, we will restock it in the spray version.
Finally, a bit of fun! Heather and The Foiled Fox are sponsoring a giveaway – YAY! Be sure to check out at the end of the blog how you can enter to win.
