Yippee Skippee….it's Saturday and I have a super quick and easy card for you plus another layer of Blog Candy for you! I am just so darn tootin' happy that Spring is here that I want to share my excitement with you!
Please pop back tomorrow as I will be sharing with you the "Stepped Up" twist to this card. I am having fun doing these. This is from a stamp set that I personally think is overlooked….It is called A Happy Hooray – I think it is a great, practical set! What do you think?
This is a set that you can use all year long and I think that the fonts are fabulous. The feather is a super easy image to "fussy cut out"
Today's colors came from the inspiration of the Lullaby Designer Series Paper, they are colors that I normally do not use but I think that they are fun together!
This is about as clean as they come but at the same time, just think if how you can change up the colors and you can always have a fabulous card! I can't wait for you to see the simple touches I did for tomorrow – please pop back and see what I came up with!
The linen thread and the white gel pen adds a simple and quick touch – I call these staples that we all should have in our craft area as they come in handy for a simple bling!
Now to the Blog Candy…..Here is another chance for you to win as I have added another layer of fun to yesterday's goodies…..see in the below picture!
Today, leave a comment as to what is your favorite (3) colors to use for Spring cards?
This will be fun to see what everyone shares…it is amazing how we all learn from each other – I thank you for popping in today and I hope to see you back tomorrow as I share with you a bump up from today's card….
I hope that this makes you smile….I think that this is a fun set and I know that you will love the paper! Enjoy the day and until tomorrow!
My Spring color combo would be Daffodil Delight, Garden Green and Tempting Turquoise.
All are vivid reminders that Spring is finally here. Grass, clouds, daffodils…what more can I say?
I love crisp canteloupe ,daffodil delight and gumball green. It reminds me of spring flowers.
I thought your two feathers were butterfly wings turned sideways and your string bow was the body and the head, with the two bottom tails as the lil’ feet. I guess it is too early for me to really be doing this, but my daughter’s dog is here and he has me up earlier than the sun.
When I finally focused . . . I liked your colors very much. Mine would be Lost Lagoon, Hello Honey and Mossy Meadow. I’m not too much of a light or pale color person.
🙂
Well, we are in the throws of spring here as the pollen has been everywhere. but then I love the fresh start of the season. My colors of choice right now would be, Crisp Cantaloupe, Pear Pizzazz and Calypso Coral.
Enjoy your week-end.
3. Spring card/ ink colors. Pitaschio pudding, Crisp Cantaloupe,Tangerine Tango.
Ah, yesterday, the start of Spring….we got six inches of the beautiful white powder here in Jersey! I must say the trees and foliage looked so breathtaking but I think Mother Nature needs to move on to the next season. When I think of Spring I see pansies so my colors would be Elegant Eggplant, Daffodil Delight and Wild Wasabi. Love the colors and concept of your card. The dashes really make it pop….it is a keeper! Thanks, Susan!
My spring colors would be Coastsl Cabana, Calypso coral, Daffodil Yellow.
I love gray, crisp cantaloupe, and daffodil delight. Bring on the spring!

Happy Spring! I would have to say I love daffodil delight, tempting turquoise, and tangerine twist for my go to spring colors. Thank you the chance to win some blog candy.
Brightly-colored blossoms adorn the flower boxes on my porch and my neighbor’s porch. They are filled with colors like Elegant Eggplant, Melon Mambo and Daffodil Delight. These colors would look stunning against the winter wonderland that greeted us this morning. Enough snow…welcome spring!
My go to spring colors are pear pizzazz, pink pirouette and so saffron. They make me think of Easter.
This is such a subtlety sweet card. My favorite colors right now are So Saffron, very vanilla and Pistachio pudding. Happy Spring…. It certainly was a long time coming!

When I think of Spring, purples, pinks, yellows and greens come to mind. I reach for Pistachio Pudding, Daffodil Delight, and Wisteria Wonder or Pink Pirouette. Thanks.
Give me Daffodil Delight, Soft Sky and Pear Pizzazz and it’s Spring!
My spring colors are Crisp Cantaloupe, Pistachio Pudding & Wisteria Wonder. So happy Spring is here !!!
I enjoy any of the purples and yellows together as they remind me of spring flower bulbs blooming from when I was a little girl in PA. Can’t have them in florida unless I purchase them from the grocery store. The colors always remind me of Easter Sunday dressed up and seeing the flowers. Thanks.
Wow, to narrow it to 3 colors may be difficult, but I love So Saffron, Pear Pizzazz and Real Red (so many beautiful red flowers).
I really love your clean style….definitely up my alley. I’ve been trying, lately, to venture out a bit and create cards outside my comfort zone, but it’s not easy for me. Love your cards and envelopes.
Pear Pizzazz, Wisteria Wonder, Crisp Canteloupe
You are such an inspiration to me with all of your creative posts even through difficult times. Thank you. I think the retiring in colors crisp cantaloupe, coastal cabana and pistachio pudding scream spring and I will be sad when they retire.

My favorite color combination is Pistachio Pudding, So Saffron and Baked Brown Sugar. Love it!
Mine would have to be coastal cabana, crisp cantaloupe, and daffodil delight. I will probably shed tears when the 2013-2015 In Colors go “out” this year because I use at least one of them on each project it seems. I hope you’re having fun with Hannah!
Soft Sky, So Saffron & Blushing Bride. Very hard to pick, so many great colors! Happy Saturday 🙂

Spring should arrive in Maine about June, but in the meantime I love the bright spring colors of Daffodil Delight, Garden Green and Elegant Eggplant. These represent the first signs of sring with crocuses, grape hyacinths and daffodils! Love your Simple Saturday and Stepped up Sunday card sets!!

Oh Susan, I wish I could answer you in a more positive way. Right now I am only seeing black, gray and red. I sure hope something really good happens super soon so I can respond with some wonderful springy thoughts. Maybe I will play with some ink tonight and try to help me out of my funk. I think Daffodil Yellow will be one of the colors at least. I like your card and that Thanks stamp is my favorite stamp in that set but I like several of them after all. I had forgotten about that set. I think I would use it a lot. I need to make a new wish list. I can’t wait to see the stepped version. I am way behind on checking your blog and others. Gee, I would hate to miss a chance for some blog candy!
Hmmm…daffodil delight, old olive (stamped off once) and pink piroutte shout ‘spring!’ to me. Thanks for the chance to win blog candy, Susan.
I really like Coastal cabana, Crisp cantaloupe, and Pear pizazz. Good Spring colors.
What is a flower without it’s earth/dirt? Have to have a light brown! And then any shade of lavender and any shade of the pink family does it for me (with a pale yellow for the floral center, of course).
You have such an upbeat, fun blog to follow! Thanks so much.
I hope my other comment doesn’t show up…I was brain storming with color families, not being specific! I need a tan/brown for a basic so would choose Sahara Sand. Then I would love Wisteria Wonder (love the lavender!) and Blushing Bride (Spring isn’t Spring without a lovely pink.)
I made a few cards today and used Daffodil Delight, Old Olive (a great old stand by) and I used Crisp Cantaloupe. If I had more time and kept on stamping, I would of had to throw in a pink or purple too.
My favorite spring colors are Daffodil Delight, Pear Pizzazz and Crisp Cantaloupe. I am so ready for spring time as the pollen is almost gone, the temperatures are just perfect and the wild flowers are in full bloom. What a beautiful time of year here in AZ.
