MAKE•IT•Crafty•March Blog Hop

Welcome to another MAKE•IT•Craft•Blog Hop!

This month we are sharing the Promise of Spring, it's just around the corner; really it is! I've used products from the Annual Inspirations and the Seasonal Expression 1. We have a smaller then usual group, I guess they're all off on a jet plane and are trying to escape the snow. Please join me and my three amigos! If you've arrived from Diana's Blog, you are on the right path. Please see the list of participants here.

So here's my project and the creative process behind these two cards.  First, it all started with one card but when cutting the first one, I had enough to make a second one and well you all know how that goes.  Can't leave that perfectly good base card on my desk.  Plus when cutting the flowers using the Springtime Wishes thin cuts, I got that ah-ah moment.

By thinking a little outside the box or in this case thinking outside the paper pattern combination  you can take it in a completed different direction.  From spring blooms to the luck of a 4 leaf clover.

  

I started with the spring blooms, I picked one of the colours Pixie and stamped using Gypsy.  The though of pretty flowers and warmer weather was the inspiration for this card.

and then this happened, while I was trying to find a second colour combination these flowers looked like 4 leaf clovers so I just went with it.
