March 9th Card Club, and Betty's gathering!

Well, I hesitate to say it, but I think spring is here.  I have been bragging that I've not been very bothered by allergies, and that maybe my allergy shots are working, but I think it has caught up with me!  Spent the nice, sunny day out yesterday at yard sales, and the sun wasn't the only thing out!  I have been sneezing so much, I have had a hard time getting the cards made.  Well, enough excuses, here are the cards for Monday night.

Thought we'd do one more St. Patrick's Day card...
CTMH Card stock: desert sand, sweet leaf
CTMH Exclusive Paper: Dotty for You (retired)
CTMH Stamp sets:  D1560 Holiday Tags; S1503 Choose Happy
CTMH Exclusive Ink: Black
Misc: Sentiment printed on white vellum paper (there will be a few others to choose from); Shamrocks cut using CTMH Cricut cartridge Artfully Sent
 And here is an early Easter card...
CTMH Card stock: Cotton candy, honey, desert sand, white daisy
CTMH Stamp sets: S1503 Choose Happy (March stamp of the month), A1171 A Little Note, and B1446 Some Bunny (hostess rewards stamp)
CTMH Exclusive Ink: Black
Misc: Memento Tuxedo Black ink
Shinhan Markers

Please bring adhesive and scissors.  If you have markers/pencils you wish to use, and a craft knife and mat, that might be useful as well.  I have colored pencils and Shinhan markers, as well as 2 craft knives and 2 mats.  If you don't mind waiting for the craft knife/mat or the markers/pencils, then you don't need to bring them.

Happy stamping!
