Welcome Spring!

Spring is definitely in the air! We've been enjoying the warmer weather that's come our way by having our morning coffee on the porch again!  LOVE SPRING!
The Stampendous Design Team is sharing designs that "Contains: Spring!" this week. That means we'll be showing you some of the wonderful designs that have containers full of spring goodness, like this wonderful stamp called Birch Bouquet (W167). The birch log container with the pussy willow handle are the perfect basket for these spring blossoms.  Color them up, mount them on some spring colored papers and in no time you have a fabulous "Welcome Spring!" card for family and friends.
