This month's kit made 9 cards, 3 each of 3 designs. It includes everything, and I mean everything, except the scissors to cut the twine! 


Here are the cards as designed:



Here is my alternative:


I focused on the stamps, but I did cut apart one of the envelopes for the blue pieces. I like to see what I can do with the stamps after the kit pieces are used up. I just got my kit this afternoon, so didn't have a lot of time to plan. I don't think I did too bad tho'...

ICS Blog Hop: Spring has Sprung....Garden Birdhouses

 


Hello friends! Thanks for joining the Inspire Create Share team for our "Spring is Sprung" Blog Hop! I know some areas are still experiencing cold weather, and some are still getting snow, but I hope you feel a little more "springy" after you hop through with us. 

Here is my card using Garden Birdhouses. Birds in my yard, flitting around and singing, always make me think of spring. 


Unfortunately, Garden Birdhouses is retiring, so grab yours before it is gone!

I love the textured shimmer paper. It is slightly corrugated, and it has just the right amount of shimmer to it too! It comes in 3 colors and the best part is, it iscarrying over into the new 2023-2024 Stampin' Up! catalog, so grab a pack now and start creating with it!

Let's hop over to Janey's blog and see what she has created to share with us.
