Spring is Blossoming Trifold Card




Sometimes...these days, it certainly doesn't feel that spring is here. I look outside and see the clouds and the drizzle. In fact, I just heard on the news that we're out of a drought! After something like 8 years of minimal rain, California is finally out of a drought season. There is plenty of snow in the mountains, (the sierras got over 12 feet of snow in the first rains, early in winter...and plenty more with all the other rains...over 25 feet)....
Great news for skiers...and great news for us this summer. At least we can now fill our pools, and water our lawns!

But, I don't know if our water bill will drop..!!! LOL


Today's card is a trifold. I am on a run with the tri-folds. I used the nesties die to cut my circles because I love the scallop lace edge.


Now, when I saw this flower from the Fifth Avenue floral set, I thought wouldn't it look pretty with those teeny pearls from our pearl accessories to accent the center? I mean, those pearls are really tiny! I added a few of the larger ones but mostly the teeny ones. I have almost used all of my 1 package that I bought, and I am determined to use them! I love them! To create the flower, I stamped it in Marina Mist, and then sponged Marina mist to the edges, and then So Saffron in the center. I blended it with the sponge to create the color for the flower.
