April Expressions

 

Have you seen the new and improved Express the Moment website? It’s full of ten different kinds of awesome! I’m so very excited! I also have something else exciting to share that I am sooooooo proud of. Kim included some sketches from the Operation Write Home site in the ETM Expressions Card kit this month. Operation Write Home has been one of my biggest passions and it feels pretty darned cool that Express the Moment is sharing my love for them by spreading the word about making cards for the troops. What an awesome collaboration of two of my very favorite things! Life doesn’t get much better.

Alrighty then. . . the April kit is just packed full of springy cuteness. The papers and embellies are by Making Memories this month. The line is called “Dilly Dally” and there are all kinds of flowers, butterflies, bugs and pretty colors to work with. Combine these great supplies with a few sketches from Operation Write Home and you have everything that you need to crank out a TON of cute springtime cards.

Here are just a few:

I love pink ric-rac  and these cute pastel colors.

Also included in this month’s kit – a ton of paper butterfly punches in a variety of different colors, and more ribbon than you could use in a lifetime. Haha.

There are quite a few letter stickers and rub-ons and a 12x12 sheet of perforated sentiments that can be used as an easy layer.

I also wanted to share these ones made by my scrapping buddy Kirsten. . . she’s doing such a great job! Wow! Way to pitch in, lady!

Now go on and check out the new Express the Moment site and look at all of the neat things there. (I especially enjoy the “design team” page – wow, those ladies are hot don’t you think? Hehehe!) I can’t wait for the crop in May. . . ohboy! It’s only $15. . have you signed up?
