Here's some flower fun from the IO girls 

 I had so much fun stamping the floral images around the edges of the Neenah paper that I ended up making 2 cards for today!
This design was framed using a die cut from the All-in-One Frames. The lilies and BG have been colored with Copics.

The flower images were stamped, colored and then fussy cut. This gave the top layer a little dimension.

HOP LIST
Karen Amidon...that's me!


Spring is in the air and the flowers are popping their heads up! I am seeing gorgeous shades of golden daffodils everywhere. While looking through my stamps I remembered the daffodil in the fun SPRING FLOWER POP'S CLING SET
I have stamped the flower several times and then colored the images with Copics. The petite NORTH DRAGONFLY was stamped in Summer Breeze ink.
Now, here is what's new, the SPRING die! Isn't it great?! This is one of the 4 dies that come in the SEASONS DIES, love these!


Card Inside
Here is a look at the daffodil image without it being colored. I used two different inks for stamping, Orange Zest and Orange Fizz. I think the flowers are wonderful left plain. HAPPY SPRING was stamped in Razzle Berry.
