Spring Has Sprung!

Spring Has Sprung!

I love working with tiny stamps, so today I am showing you two ways to use our hero_product_link sku="LP398" text="Flower Garden Mini Tub"], which is full of small blooms perfect for spring! Just find a bunch of inks and white paper, and start playing. I randomly stamped the flowers in a pleasing flower collage. I decided I wanted to make this an Easter card, so I stamped the bunny from hero_product_link sku="DC156" text="Millie Cut-Outs by Lia"] in hero_product_link sku="AF208" text="Bubble Gum ink"], die-cut, and popped him up. The google eyes were a MUST.

In case you need a gift tag or enclosure, you can make this little basket of flowers - I used the shopping bag from hero_product_link sku="DC156" text="Millie Cut-Outs by Lia"] for my "basket"! First I stamped out "Happy Easter" with hero_product_link sku="LP369" text="Kelly's Bold Font alphabet"] in pink and lilac. Just randomly stamp your greens and flowers and cut them out like they are growing from the basket.
