Happy Spring Flowers of Friendship!

Spring if finally here and it has been very rainy in St. Louis. You know what they say, April showers bring May flowers.

For me becoming a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator was a great decision because I have made so many new friends. If not for my love of stamping and crafting I may never have met these wonderful ladies.

I am very blessed indeed. And because our world has become so virtual, I know have stamping friends across the United States and beyond! Today’s card celebrates spring flowers and friendship. Enjoy! Feel free to leave me a comment.
