If you've come here by way of Barbara, you're in the right place! If you want to start from the beginning, go the Sparkle N Sprinkle blog and find out how you can win one of FIVE wonderful prizes. You don't want to miss any of the designers' gorgeous designs!
My first card uses the stamp set Flower Vases (#265), Waterfall glitter and SNS cardstock, Hurricane and Tickled Pink. The details on the card take a little bit of time, but well worth it for that special friend. This would be a great easel card, too, with a few rows of the punched grass on the bottom layer. For complete directions, click here.
My second card uses the set Spring Swirl (#425), the new embossing powder, Cerulean Star (for the vase and edge of oval die) and lots of other wonderful Sparkle and Sprinkle products. The tulips too are made with sparkly embossing powders, Tequila Sunrise, Winter Berry, and Bullfrog. For a complete list and directions, click here.The color combination reminds us of the colors that will be blooming outdoors soon!
Thanks for visiting and now hop on over to Karin for more inspiration! Don't forget to leave a comment on each blog to become eligible for one of the prizes! There are 2 grand prizes and 3 "mystery" prizes attached to 3 of the designers' blogs.

Gerlinde, what GORGEOUS cards! You've captured the glitter beautifully, and used one of my favorite glitters in your vases! So pretty with the glitter EPs in your second card. Simply beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYour cards are so cool. I especially love the awning card. It is a perfect fit for the vases in the window.
ReplyDeleteI love the awning. Great idea! I love the glittery tulips too.
ReplyDeleteGreat cards! Love that awning! Very clever!

ReplyDeleteBoth your cards are so wonderful. But that little cottage card is so cute. Love that overhang you made for it.
ReplyDeleteWhat an incredible awning you did on the first card, Gerlinda! Those flower vases are one of my favorite stamps and I have used them many times. Great dimension and I love the sparkle on both cards.
ReplyDeleteI just love the coloring on your vases. I can remember as a child bringing flowers (weeds really) to my Mom and she always found the perfect vase to put them in. Precious memories renewed today - thank you. Judy Bennett
ReplyDeleteHow clever is your first card but they are both adorable xx
ReplyDeleteThe water in the bottles look so real! How do you mail the first card? (I'd be afraid of crushing it!)
ReplyDeleteBoth your cards sing "Spring". The glitter adds a real sparkle to your greeting. Thanks for sharing.
