Spring is here...hooray!

Posted by Jen Cramer

I don't know about you but I am tired of winter and I am definitely ready for spring and even more ready for summer. So it was nice to see that we finally reached the first day of spring yesterday. In honor of yesterday's annual milestone, let's see a fun spring project.

This Spring Giggles Triptych is made by decorating a Creative Imaginations Bare Elements Jyoti Triptych with die cuts, rub-ons and photos.

It's so easy to decorate one of these tryptichs when you cut out the base shapes using the coordinating AccuCut Jyoti Triptych die shown below. You can see that it cuts the outside frame shape and the recessed "window" shape. It's so much easier using the die than trying to cut those shapes by hand.

If you want to see all of the dies used on this Spring project including butterflies, the flower and the rick rack shape, just go to the project page.

Now that I've shared a project with you, I think I'm going to spend the rest of my day off checking out some of the local scrapbook stores (home is Omaha, Nebraska) to see what new products they have in from their CHA orders. Last night I stopped at Yesterday's Scrapbooking down the street, which has a great AccuCut die cutting center by the way, and picked up some of the new Scenic Route Grafton line. I can't wait to play with it!

We'll be back again on Monday... enjoy your weekend and have a happy Easter!
