Finally....Flowers! FMS484
Finally! The flowers are starting to bloom here in the north country! Definitely a welcome sight! I am not a gardener but I so appreciate my neighbors who are. My porch flowers are like the ones on the card - in pots purchased from the greenhouse every spring!
I love those bright sprinkles that were part of the Ice Cream Corner Suite. They add a wonderful little pop of color to any project!

Why do I look at this card and hear Lion King songs in my head? Not a lion in sight - just those sweet giraffes! They are perfect for a welcome baby card!
Oh those sweet giraffes! I used the sketch and the photo as inspiration this week at Fusion. Join us! Stamp Set: Hero Arts Monthly Kit from a couple of years ago, Label Me Bold (SU) Ink: Versafine Black, Distress Paper: Tim Holtz Heavyweight White, Whisper White, Granny Apple Green, Retired DSP 
Bits and Pieces.....FMS 483
There are so many options with the Fine Art Floral Suite and my desk is presently littered with flowers of all colors and pieces of DSP. When I make a card with lots of bits I make extra because I do a lot of trial and error arranging and stamping in various shades until I come up with a combo I like. And extra bits and pieces are always good to have around.......unless of course you are building a swing set.....
The Big Guy somehow managed to turn this -
Into this -
Good thing we had several days of rain so the he could sit on the porch and assemble this jigsaw puzzle!
Our resident florist Narelle Farrugia designed our sketch this week. I always love her floral designs! But you can use whatever you want with her terrific sketch this week at Freshly Made Sketches!

My card is a mini slim (3.5 by 6) due to my lack of 12 by 12 paper - I may have to remedy that! Stamps: Face At My Door (IO) Ink: Memento Black, Copics Paper: Whisper White, Ice Cream Corner DSP
Fusion: Poppies
The happy pop of red on this card would definitely make me smile - hope it works for my cousin who recently had back surgery!
I couldn't resist shading a few flowers on the background paper......
