It is snowing buckets here today and we are expectd to get between 6 and 12 inches! I needed a bit of "spring in the air" and so I turned to SCS to get me in the stamping mood. Today's clean and simple challenge has to do with candy!! Browse this site and pick a candy for inspiriation! Yummy! I chose snaps for my inspiration! I love those things but if I eat too many I get a tummy ache (I guess that's true with anything you eat though, huh? Maybe I just need to use a bit more self control!) Anyways, I used the bright snap colors as the flower colors for my tree. I used a tiny flower punch from the Target dollar spot and added some silver brads to their middles. I pleated my ribbon with some super sticky red line tape and addded a button to finish off my card.
In case you are wondering- the shoe shopping went really well and my husband found 2 PAIR of dress shoes in about 2 hours! I know you are as relieved as my children are :)
Thanks for stopping by!
