Fresh Fig Floral Card Tutorial
I always love to look at the colors listed on each Designer Series Paper (DSP) when I get them...and then I look over each sheet to see what colors from the list are there....and what colors are NOT listed that are there too. There are two colors on this DSP that definitely coordinate but aren't listed in the color list: Berry Burst and Lemon Lime Twist. Those two colors may not actually be what they used, but it is soooooo very close that it would be hard for anyone to tell otherwise. The small frame of Lemon Lime Twist picks up all the fresh light green in the paper from the buds, and the Berry Burst makes all the bright pink flowers pop too. Coloring the little Butterfly Element was easy too. Simply press it into the ink pad of choice and carefully lift it off and let it dry. Best yet, this DSP is on the Sale-a-Bration page for this month only. So you can get it free with a $50 purchase.
Visiting family and friends in other states can be a challenge to schedule. But I love when everything works out and the airline prices are just right. I am giving thanks for all the airline workers who make our long distance travel possible and for keeping us safe and doing your best to ensure comfortable flight for all passengers. I also pray and send wishes and energy for healing for those who have passed away recently and for the investigators who are working diligently to find the cause. Air travel is one of the safest modes of transportation, no doubt to the dedication and attention to detail that all airline workers use. Thank you for making the distance not-so-far for many of us!

These colors will soon be on a "while supplies last" basis, but for the month of March, they are fully available. You can get all 5 ink pads in a set, which makes for easy ordering. I want to be sure YOU get your chance to get them before they are gone and also want to be sure you have some designs to use as well.
