Morning! I hope everyone is having a super Sunday so far... :) We just came home from church and went out for a nice breakfast after. YUM-O! :) I wanted to make a fun "springy" card, being we still have snow and may have more coming this week. I chased one of Shelley's cards at Stampin' Garden. She used
Kristina's Color Inspiration #9 challenge which I just fell in love with the cute tree and button combo. Pop into her blog to see some WONDERFUL eye candy and talent!! Thanks Shelley for the inspiration!A few tid-bits on the card; I used my Top Note die for the tree image from Season of Friendship, found some fun DP to work with, added the look of grass using "paper frills" that Jolyn (a good friend of mine who lives to FAR AWAY!!) gave me as a gift recently!! The grass was a celery green color so I brayerd over with Old Olive to match the DP. SO FUN! Then I embossed "SPRING" and used my large oval punch. Added ribbon and buttons. Enjoy!!!
I'm sure some of you have colorful buds on your trees and seeing green grass! :) Have a super day stampers and we'll chat again soon... SMILES!!

I love all of the colors. I especially love the punches of color from the buttons. Another fabu job by you!
Michelle, I LOVE this! The bright colors, ribbons, buttons, and grass are all awesome! You rock!
How fun this is with the bright color combo and button accents.
As always you've used some fabulous details to create something wonderful - you alwasy make me "smile" when i visit - your blog name is just sooo true! Hope you get your Spring weather soon - we had our first taste of Winter last week - but are back to stunning Autumn weather this week!
Take care and keep smiling xXx
Okay, that's it. I'm definitely pulling out my top notch Bigz die!
This card is so springy and colorful and wonderful, Michelle! I love how you used the buttons for "apples" on the tree (or are they pears? maybe peaches? hehe). I'm sorry to hear you're getting more snow, but I guess it's not quite spring yet. Just keep looking at this card and think springy thoughts!
Big hugs, my dear friend,
Lisa
