Happy March everyone! I have the pleasure of leading off a new month of color challenges. Since it will be spring this month I decided to lead off with some soft colors perfect for a spring card. For dessert I am giving you the option to add any yellow you like! I chose So Saffron.
My card is mostly die cuts with just the sentiment and postmark stamped. It's had to read but it says "special delivery" and "miss you".
This little kitty just really called to me - he (or she) is so sweet popping up from the envelope. I tried to stay with a postage them by using the die cut that is fluted like a stamp.
I hope you will join us this week! We love seeing all your beautiful cards in the gallery!

Awwww, I can see why he (or she) called to you because it's really sweet. And your design featuring that cutie is equally sweet. I did notice the "postage" with your panel and thought it quite clever. Love the bit of polka dot yellow as the envelope liner. Adorable card and whoever gets it will definitely feel loved.

Jeanne, that kitten peeking out from the envelope is just too adorable! I love the postage theme you carried through from the envelope to the postmark and postage edge to your die cut! What a fun card!

This card is so full of cheer and it just says "spring" all over! The kitty popping out of the envelope is such a wonderful die cut and the added pink tulips are perfect! The added details, postage stamp and tab with enamel dot, they add so much to your creation!

Adorable! Fabulous inspiration for these beautiful challenge colors. Love the kitty in the envelope with tulips. The postage edges and stamp is a perfect compliment for the theme. Super cute!
