\"Easter<\/a><\/p>\n

Spring has finally arrived! The last three days have been sunny and the high temps have been in the 60's. Yay and such joy! <\/p>\n

The card above has an ariel view of the tulip fields near LaConner, Washington. This is a beautiful sign of spring in that area. (No, I didn't take the photo.) <\/p>\n

So that is what spring looks like in the Skagit Valley of Washington. Here is what spring looks like here on Prince of Wales Island in Alaska.<\/p>\n

\"Dandelions\"<\/a>
The roadsides, hillsides, and yards are filled with these sunny yellow flowers. The story is told that an early missionary to SE Alaska really missed dandelions so she had a friend send her dandelion seeds to plant in Alaska. What was she thinking?????!!!!! Alaska dandelions are huge! Just look at this clump. I haven't measured the diameter of one of them but I would estimate it is at least 1 1\/2" across!<\/p>\n

\"Dandelions<\/a><\/p>\n

For the card, I used the greeting from the Easter Blossoms<\/strong> stamp brush set and the tulip blossom from the Convention 2011 Designer Template<\/strong>. I dropped the opacity of the tulip to 80% and the Convention 2012 Photobook Template <\/strong>– Curvy Frame Label to 60% . The mat around the photo was colored using the color picker<\/strong> to match one of the colors of tulips in the photo.Both of the convention designer templates are currently on sale for 25% off. As you can see, they are not just for creating scrapbooks. They are filled with tons of wonderful things to use for cards and 3-D items as well. Check down at the bottom of the post to see what these two kits include. Then click on the linked item names or visit my online store<\/strong><\/a> to order them. Like me, you will get your money's worth out of these templates!<\/p>\n
