Sharon Johnson has come up with another great Stamp Simply challenge for us today, something I think everyone should be able to participate in! Get out those heat guns, and some embossing powder and heat things up! Maybe we can create enough warm air to make it feel more springy, too? Check out Sharon's beautiful sample and read all the challenge details on her blog, and see these awesome creations from the rest of the Stamp Simply team, including a new Guest Designer for March!

For my card, I chose to use this fabulous, newly released paper from My Mind's Eye that I just got along with my favorite set of Kitchen Sink Stamps, the 3-Step Butterfly. I love to stamp the first 2 layers of the butterfly, and then heat emboss the third layer with clear powder to make it really stand out. My sentiment is embossed, too.
I hope you'll join in the fun and give this challenge a try! Happy stamping and thanks for stopping by!
