Spring is certainly in the air here in the Pacific Northwest…we’ve had record warm weather and all our flowers are poking up through the ground and even some trees are blooming…..(I know everyone else that has snow…sorry about that)…
For our feature today I’m sharing with you this cute card made with the tree shaped card that you can find in the store here.
this card shape is a perfect way to celebrate the arrival of Spring!!!
