Stampin Friends March Card Swap "Spring Is Here"

Spring is here!!! So are the House Mouse and Happy Hoppers!

Good evening from New York! Such a beautiful day here. Enjoying the warmth!

Today, I have another bunch of cards I made, for yet another FB group I'm in!! Hahaha Running really low on energy, and feeling really fatigued today. Actually the past couple days. But, I have swaps to finish. I still have a mini album on my table, that HAS to be done over this weekend. Pray I have the strength...LOL. It's tough getting through these swaps when I'm so tired. But, I march on!!! Lol

This group is called Stampin Friends, and it's made up of mostly women who love Stampin Up. I have a couple sets from Stampin up, as I just recently got into them. I will definitely be acquiring more, in time...LOL. For this swap, I didn't use my Stampin Up sets, because it's spring themed and I really didn't have what fit the description. So, I decided to use one of my House Mouse stamps and one of my Happy Hoppers stamps.



This is what I call, "Gettin her done!" Hahaha
Matching up flowers to match the colors isn't always as fun as you thing it would be....LOL
