Hoppy Easter Theme!

Welcome to Create With Stamping Friends Creatively Simple! Connie and I create simple cards with a theme each week. We have a brand new theme for the month: of February:

I added just a few layers of designer paper and cardstock to keep this card simple!

Have you ever eaten colored carrots? The first time I spied them, I thought what? Purple carrots? I have eaten them and you know what? There’s really no difference in taste, just color. I opted to use Stampin’ Blends to add 3 different colors to my carrots because there truly is such a thing!
