Thank you for joining us for the March Pals Blog Hop! Today, the Stampin’ Pretty Pals are excited to share new ideas and projects to get you ready for spring.
You should have just left stop number 6 on the Pals Hop – Diane Roberts at Score at Four and a Quarter. If so, you are in the right spot. If you get off track, the full blog lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all of the amazing creations.

Today, I’m welcoming Spring with the Bloomin Marvelous stamp set from Sale-A-Bration. I chose the flowers and the hummingbird who are there “for each other”, as the sentiment says. This is just a pretty card to send to a friend to celebrate Spring. The colors are so festive and inviting!
The card base and mat are Very Vanilla with a So Saffron banner across the card. The banner is embellished with strips of Tea For Two Designer Series Paper. I stamped the flowers with So Saffron ink and the Hummingbird is stamped in Early Espresso. The leaves are stamped with Lucky Limeade (some are stamped off once).
The detail in these stamps is just beautiful, and I really had fun with the gorgeous colors.
Here’s the Easter Egg for your Blog Candy…..

This is Stampin’ Up’s Curly Label Punch. It’s my Blog Candy for you. The punched label a 3/4″ square. I will also include a set of six 3′ X 3″ note cards with envelopes and a gift box. The note cards will be featured in tomorrow’s post.
If you’d like to receive this Blog Candy, please be sure to leave a comment by 6 PM CST on Thursday, March 14. One recipient will be chosen at random from the comments received. The blog candy recipient will be announced in Friday’s post, and the recipient will need to email me their mailing address within 24 hours. Blog candy can only be shipped to a US address — thanks for understanding.
