We’ve got a “SPRING” in our step today and NEW Busy Beauties Boutique images in our hands, and we're delighted to have you along for the hop! I'm the second stop along the way, so if you are just starting out here, please be sure to hop back to Carolyn’s blog so you don’t miss any of the fun!
We hope you’ll join us for a TWIST & a SHOUT! The “TWIST” being our new GO GREEN WITH A TWIST Challenge (in honor of Earth Day) at the Busy Beauties Creation Station! And the “SHOUT” being a RELEASE PARTY over on Paper Craft Planet this SATURDAY AT 8 P.M. EDT. We'll bring the Party Favors! *wink, wink*
But for now, on to the hop!
There are so many adorable and fun images with this release, and it was really hard to decide which one to use. But I always kept going back to this sweet image called Friendly Hello, because this sweet couple reminds me of the Eastern bluebirds that visit our yard every year. They are always in pairs - Mr. & Mrs Bluebird - and usually Mr. is on lookout as Mrs. grazes on some tasty treat.
I really wanted the super-cute image to take center stage, so I made the card pretty simple. I chose the patterned papers for their soft spring colors, and just added some ribbon and a glittered chipboard flower. And there ya go!
Your next hop stop is Annita's blog and I just *know* she has something special waiting for you! Thanks for bopping & hopping with us, and we hope to see you for the TWIST and SHOUT!
Hope you have a stamptacular day!

OMGosh i love those bluebird, so cute, and you've coloured them beautifully. I love the little butterfly and bee, such a cute touch.
I love how you've made the image your main focal point, your papers coordinate with it beautifully, and really enhance it. A really lovely spring card.
