I awoke the other morning to the first spring robins chirping on the lawn - a sure sign that winter will soon be over and that spring flowers will be popping their heads up through the soil after a long peaceful nap. Easter and Mother's Day are just around the corner too, so what better time to work with the fun Timeless Tulips Bundle - stamp set and punch combo - to create a couple cards and a fun Easter Table Topper that the kids can easily make.

I have three great projects for you again in this month's Gentlemen Crafters Blog Hop - one with only the punch - one with stamps and a little DSP - and one with the stamps-punch bundle using a colour blending technique that really shows off the detail of the tulip stamps.  So grab some paper and ink and follow me along.

This month I am sharing the Tropical Oasis suite of products from the Jan-June Mini Catalogue with you.  Together we will make three cards of varying skill level.  One will use only the stamp set, one only DSP, and the other stamps, DSP, dies, and the embossing folder.  So, grab some paper, ink and stamps and join me.

I was in love with the poppies the moment I got a sneak peek of the new January-June Mini Catalogue at On Stage in Edmonton.  It was the very first full suite I budgeted for on my pre-order because of it's vibrant colours and gorgeous designer paper - Stampin' Up! you have outdone yourself this time!
