My heart is so heavy today... the events of the past 24 hours have been so devastating. My heart goes out, and my prayers go up, for all of the people of Japan and all of the people around the world who are worried about their loved ones today. There just aren't words. All we can do this moment is to hold our loved ones close. This is yet another reminder of how fragile life is.
I was in the mood to create some bright and cheery spring cards this week, and so I turned to
Melissa Phillip's second
Creative Mint photo inspiration challenge. It's such a lovely, inspiring photograph again and certainly sparked some creativity in me. Here's a picture of my card for the challenge:
I used some new, and old, PTI favorites for this card, along with a Martha Stewart doiley, SU dsp, and seam binding from
Prairie Bird Boutique etsy shop. I continue that cute little zig zag stitch stamp from the Button Boutique stamp set right onto the inside of the card with the sentiment.
If you're looking for some inspiration, hop on over to
Melissa's blog to check out the sweet photo for this challenge. I'll bet you can't resist creating with this spring-y color combo!
Time to get messy creating with the little ones right now. We're making a
Leprechaun Trap to put out the night before St. Patrick's Day... wish us luck!

What a sweet card. I love it. I think it's great how you carried the stitching through to the inside. I love the sparkles on the butterflies.
Hey girl! I need to pm you back...sorry, I have been a little out of touch this week. :( I appreciate you taking the time to write me. :)
This is so GORGEOUS! I love everything about it, especially the punched heart out of the circle! You are so talented!
What a beautiful card. So pretty. I love that doily. I'll have to try to find some cut files for those.
