Stampers Dozen Blog Hop For April 2024

Spring Has Sprung Theme!

Hello and welcome to our Spring Has Sprung Stampers Dozen Blog Hop. Is it spring in your neck of the woods yet? Here in Maine, we received three snow storms at the end of March totalling over 42″ of snow! So yes, we still have snow on the ground.

I like that our theme is spring and I used some pretty flowers from our Simply Zinnia’s Suite from our Online Exclusives. It has been a popular collection.

The pretty designer paper pattern really makes the black-embossed images, bling and cardstock pop. I colored with Stampin’ Blends Markers:
