PSA Stamp Camp - Past and Present Designer Spring Blog Hop

Welcome to the PSA Past and Present Designer Spring Blog Hop! -  Being an alumnus Design Team Member - Libby asked if I'd like to join in on the festivities and, of course, I said YES!  It's a great time to get excited about spring coming - the snow here in New England is finally melting away and the crocus and daffodils are poking out of the ground!

You should start the hop at the PSA Stamp Camp.  If you came here from Anthonette Chavez Blog you are in the right place!

Well, spring brings to mind a lot of things- warmer days, flowers, new beginnings and WEDDINGS!

I used a stamp from a sweet wedding set called Kiss Me Now on my card.  The little bridal couple is front and center on this card - nestled inside alternating layers of cream and white cardstock of Spellbinders Marvelous Squares die cuts.  I added some purple Tiny Twinkles to the flowers on her head piece and bouquet, and his bow tie - just a touch of color and bling!
Inside I stamped one of the sentiments in this set - a sweet and simple message for the new couple.
I wove a beige satin ribbon through two of the layers - tying it in a little bow next to the Bride and Groom.

And, of course - there is a prize to be won on this blog hop!!! The grand prize of 1 custom stamp, 3 Peel & Stick stamp sets, 2 notecards, 1 alignment tool, 1 black ink, 1 2-color ink, and free shipping to the winner.   Value of the package is $150.   You can enter to win by going to PSA Stamp Camp 

Now off you go to the next designer on the hop -  Regina Mangum - lets go see what spring inspiration she has for us!
