Welcome to the Pinworthy Blog Tour for April presented by RemARKable Stampers. It's spring, so this month we are focusing on flowers galore!
Stampin' Up! has plenty of great floral sets, so I just started creating with some of them! First, I've got a clean and simple Easter card for you made with the Blessed Easter single-image stamp from the Occasions Catalog.

I love being able to layer an Ovals Collection cut out on top of one of the Window Frames Collection cut outs for a different look. I also like to be able to alter the Natural Composition Specialty Designer Series Paper by rubbing on some ink!

Thanks, Anne. Love your blue jean/tulle flowers! I've got to find an old pair of jeans to rip up so I can try it!

How did I not notice the way that stamp coordinates with the paper in the Fresh Prints stack? Love that look - great job.
