SUper Friends Saturday: March Flowers Card Swap

 Happy Saturday!!!  I have a treat for you today!  I am sharing the gorgeous creations from my SUper Friends' March card swap.  Our theme for this swap was flowers, and I think you'll agree, it is so fun to see the variety of stamps and colors everyone chose for this one!  

Connie M. chose a lovely, soft pastel palette for her card, which features the Art Gallery stamp set, Floral Gallery dies, and Scalloped Contour dies:

Connie S. created her bright and beautiful card with the Daffodil Daydream Bundle and coordinating designer series paper (from Sale-a-Bration):

Cathy's bright and happy card combines the Flower Shop stamp set, Pansy Punch, and Jar of Flowers stamp set, plus cute little fireflies from a Paper Pumpkin kit: 

Judy's spectacular card is a Floating Gatefold, which shows off the lovely Heart and Home Suite designer paper, stamps, die cuts and doilies.  Judy watercolored the flower images inside the card with the colors from the designer paper:

Kallien's bright flowers really pop on the black card base she chose for her elegant card.  The flowers are die cute with the soon-to-be retiring Pierced Bloom dies (if you don't have these, you will want to be sure to add them to your collection before it is too late-- and at half off original price, while supplies last!).  Kallien's embossed sentiment is from the coordinating In Bloom stamp set (also retiring soon): 

Kallien dressed up the inside of her card using a piece created with one of the Ornate Layers dies (also retiring soon) and flowers created with the Pierced Bloom dies:

Margery's fantastic card also features the Pierced Bloom dies, alsong with a fabulous watercolored background, embossed with the Ornate Floral 3d Folder (retiring soon!), and fern and bee die cuts made with the Iconic dies (also retiring soon!):

Nancy gave her delightful daisy card a fun 3D center.  The wonderful sentiment is from the Abstract Impressions stamp set:

For her bright and cheery floral card, Agnes combined elements from the Safari Celebration Paper Pumpkin kit along with some fun flower die cuts:

My card is a pop up fun fold, and I combined images stamped and cut from the Daffodil Daydream Bundle with the coordinating designer series paper, plus mixed in some images stamped and cut with the Honeybee Home Bundle:

I colored my stamped images with blends.  The background behind the stamped images is stenciled with one of the Butterflies and Flowers Layering Masks.  

On the back of the card, I added more designer series paper plus a white cardstock panel for a message:

Thanks so much once again to the SUper Friends for their beautiful artwork!!!  And, thank you for visiting my blog.  Hope you are inspired to create something of your own today!  Please let me know if you have questions or would be interested in joining one of my SUper Friends swaps.
