Spring Blossoms + Happy May Day!

It’s Shari’s week over on the Hero Club Blog, and her theme is “May Flowers” — you’ve gotta check it out if you haven’t already — she has some fantastic creations!  She asked me to play along, and I instantly thought of using Hero’s new Spring Blossoms Japanese washi paper.  This paper is sooooo yummy!  Especially the pink one, which has a neat-o pearly shine to it.  YUM.

I also decided to emboss some more flowers on the card for that extra “little something” — but boy was it hard to photo!

Full instructions + materials here.  Oh and there’s also a giveaway going on there that you don’t want to miss!  It’s the set that I used for the embossed flowers +  the message — a great set, so fun!

Happy May Day!  Can’t believe May is here already, can you?
