I have a feeling that this is going to be my favorite stamp set this spring!! : ) I love the amazing detail in the three stamp - stamped flowers.
I am very excited to see that our friend Darnell is kicking off a new challenge at djkardkreations with NBUS Challenge #6. With all that NBUS SCHTUFF! we all have I know there will be plenty of excitement happening at the Playhouse! Hop over and have a look at the fun Darnell is cooking up!
The design for my card was inspired by CAS(E) this Sketch! and the theme inspired by The Sisterhood of Crafts calling for Spring cards. I have been determined to join more challenges and have found some really terrific ones, like these, simply from visiting other blogs. Please click on the links that I've provided and check out these great challenge blogs and the stunning talent of each DT!
I have been so excited about our new home in the Black Hills of South Dakota that I've wanted to share some of the beauty that surrounds us.
Here is a shot from the Badlands National Park in South Dakota. The Badlands are about 100 miles east of us. We go there often and each visit astounds me more! it really is spectacular.
What do you have planned on this first day of March? To show you how "boring" my life is -yesterday it was clean the house and today! grocery shopping! LOL Ah! but don't feel too bad for me because our best shopping is about 50 miles away so whenever I head 'to town" I always plan some FUN stops at my favorite stores. I NEED to buy more schtuff! right??!!
Whatever you find yourself doing today I hope you enjoy it!! : ) Thanks a bunch for stopping by.

Supplies:
NBUS - bran new Tulip Time stamp set

Beautiful card Patti. Love this new tulip set. Also, enjoying all of your pictures.
Those tulips are gorgeous, Patti! What a beautiful card! And your photo is breath-taking! Nothing exciting planned for today - housework and the usual, maybe some crafting and blogging. Have a good one!

Hi Patti,
We are planning on staying in Rapid City, SD on June 16th for the night and then driving from there to Denver the next day. My friend suggested that we check out Sylvan Lake (where they filmed National Treasure 2), which looks like it's on the way to Custer, so I'm sure we could make something work where we could meet in person -- provided you don't mind that my kids will be there, too. ;) My email is pennercl@mymts.net
Beautiful card, I can why this would become your favourite stamp, what a beautiful impression it gives. Your card is just perfect.
It's so wonderful to see all the loving comments you are already receiving so soon after coming back, Patti! Well done and well-deserved! Your card is a true match for your majestic scenic photo! It's totally beautiful!! Thank you so much for playing in my NBUS Challenge #6 and for your kind words and encouragement! Hugs, Darnell
I spotted your beautiful card on Darnell's latest NBUS challenge and I just had to pop by and say I love it!!! Those tulips are so pretty and beautifully coloured ...... I can understand why it's going to become a favourite. Have a lovely weekend xx
Beautiful!
Well I can see some more playing with this stamp is due. Love the sweet image over the script. And love your whole post about the badlands. My hubby and I are celebrating our anniversary on the coast (CA) and I love seeing all the magic of this amazing country we have yet to see. Thank you!
Gorgeous card Patti! What a lovely tulip stamp.
Seriously stunning. I love the colors and that scripty image behind those tulips. Wow!
