The florals and succulents of today’s friend card are fresh and fabulous for spring. The layout was inspired by a card from my Stampin’ Success demonstrator magazine.
I used several exclusive Sale-A-Bration products you can earn for FREE (with a qualifying $50 or $100 purchase) or purchase (Sale-A-Bration Coordination).
- 1st Level Sale-A-Bration. Earn FREE products for every $50 you spend. Includes 1st, 2nd & 3rd releases (new). I used the All Adorned Photopolymer Stamp Set.
- 2nd Level Sale-A-Bration. Earn FREE products for every $100 you spend. Includes 1st, 2nd releases. I used the Painted Seasons Cling Stamp Set and Painted Seasons Designer Series Paper which make up the Painted Seasons Bundle.
- Sale-A-Bration Coordination Products. Purchase these exclusive products that crop and coordinate with many Sale-A-Bration FREE items. Available for purchase now (March 1 – 31 or while supplies last)! I used the Four Seasons Framelits Dies and the Story Label Punch.

Tfs hugs Frenchie ♥️
It’s beautiful and soft with Petal Pink instead of Melon Mambo. I opted for the pop!
Simply LOVELY Mary……Your color selection is fabulous.
Thanks, Kadie. I loved the shot of Melon Mambo.
Such a gorgeous card, Mary! I love the mix of bright and soft colors you’ve used to showcase these succulents. LOVE! Such a great arrangement, too!
Thanks, Brian. I find the best way to “do” an arrangement is just start playing. There are so many different ways to “make it work!”
I love this beautiful card, Mary. The oval die behind the punched sentiment makes the sentiment the focal point. Love the color combo you used. Have a great day!
The oval die definitely brings the sentiment on the Story Label Punch to life!
