The other day I was messing around with a tri-fold card wondering what to do on the three panels when I remembered that I had to make a spring card for a swap.
I decided that I could show the many faces of spring, including the traditional everything-is-happy-and-blooming phase, the raining like there is no tomorrow phase, and the phase that was very popular this year--the drowning in snow phase.
In the end though I copped out and decided to show spring like we do it here in southern Arizona. We do it without the rain and without the snow. You do, however, need a jacket for that first panel.
Not only did I use up a random tri-fold card base but I used up some bit and pieces of designer paper and ribbon I had lying about qualifying me for the Snippet Playground. It has been far too long since I've been by for a play.
The Fine Print: Stamps by Taylored Expressions "Love Grows Here," scalloped bordered punch by Martha Stewart, and this and that from my stash.

How neat! This is perfect for Earth Day too.
Great way to use those images. And um, you need a jacket if it's under 75F, right?
Anything under 80. Under 70 requires a parka.
This is so cute! Have never tried a tri-fold! Love the stamps you used!
Love the tri-fold design. Cute images too.
If it was 70F here, it would be sunbathing weather! LOL! xx
very pretty card
I love your cute little trees, and how each punched border is different too xxx
What a wonderful, whimsical tri-fold card, and I just love those trees! The spiral punched panel looks great in the 2nd photo! It's beginning to look like spring really has arrived here in PA!
Beautiful cards!

Oh I love your trifold, this is so cute. Fabulous images.
I'm glad you stayed with regular spring images! Don't want to depress anyone. Love this trifold and wish I could fold evenly enough to make some.
