Silhouette 25-Pack Chipboard

Today I’m showing you a springy card.  I can’t get enough of spring!  This card is on a kraft base, with yellow patterned paper from Recollections.  I used a green Silhouette pen to sketch a border around the patterned paper using the stitching feature.  It’s so nice and easy to add a little something to your cards with the stitching feature!  I love that it's a subtle feature- it almost blends right in- but it really finished off the card to add it.  It would have looked so much more empty without the border.

I added these flowers that I bought from the Silhouette online store.  I didn’t add the little swirl that came with them, because I liked the flower pot on its own.  The nice thing was that I was able to easily make two of them, because *spoiler alert* they’re going to be our Mother’s Day cards for my mom and mother in law this year.
