WCMC9 #20: Spring

April 19, 2018April 19, 20182 Comments

Spring? What's that? In my neighborhood, spring has been very elusive. I'm pretty sure it was snowing when I made the card I am sharing with you today. But you know, if you can't have flowers outside, make some flowers inside! To make the floral background, I used the accent flowers from the Wonderful Floral … Continue reading WCMC9 #20: Spring

Hi friends! Today I have two cards to share with you using the new Lil' Painters set from Mama Elephant. I absolutely adore this set.

About me

I am a craft and art enthusiast. My first love is knitting, but a blog about languishing WIPs is hardly interesting. I started making cards about a year ago (and about ten years after I gave up on scrapbooking). Being creative is my outlet and my zen. Monkey and Oliver are my cats and craft buddies.
