Here is the Perfect Spring Color Palette for Spring Cards

Bring on the sunshine and the bright florals and make a handmade card with colors that make your eyes happy!

Today our designer, Amy, is bringing a card design that truly makes our eyes laugh. It feels like such a delight with the bright colors that leap off the page, paired with these new florals from our “Botanical Daydreams” release. Amy said, “Spring was officially here on March 20th and I’m all about the bright and happy colors. One of my current favorite duos would be pink and yellow. It reminds me of pink lemonade.” We agree, that’s exactly what it made us think of too! Try this color combo on your next project, and check out these steps to recreate this card from home!
