Lovely cards… thanks for sharing!!
Super cute cards. I love them all. Thanks for sharing. ????
Wonderful samples! I hope April Showers will melt the snow. Once the snow is finally gone then the green and growing things can start. 🙂
April has brought us a lot of snow so far, so I’m hoping for sun!! Love all the gorgeous spring cards!
Each and every one of these cards are adorable. We may have snow outside, but it is certainly spring time here at YNS!
Bring children out to play, spring faires, happiness, colours and flowers.
I adore your cards.
Thank you for the chance to win ! Great job on this card !!
All the cute creations made me smile! May bring some rain here in the very Hot weather!
Great cards, awesome inspiration!
All of these samples are adorable. Warmer weather and much needed rain.
So much cuteness here! A wonderful showcase of spring! I love the birds and flowers. April showers bring a disappearance of snow (hopefully) and a sign that spring is really on its way. After the showers, there is sunshine – yay!
Kendra’s smile Cards is so pretty. Franci, puddles of fun is oh sooooo cute. Andrea, love the tweet greeting, those little birds and puppy absolutely adorable. Koren, fun birthday card, love the font on the Happy. Deborah, Rain or Shine card is simply adorable. Lisa, you make me happy like the flowers, very nicely done. Julie, love the tiny birds on flowered branch and the clouds are beautiful done. Sue, rain or shine, the little chick with most adorable umbrella, lots of cuteness. Cassies, flower pot very colorful with such a springtime feeling. Thanks ladies for sharing your talent with us all.
Oh wow, all cards are stunning. Thanks for sharing.
This is an awesome group of cards, full of spring and
better weather to come!

What adorable Springtime cards. The birds and the Chicks make me smile.
Love Love all of them.
Beautiful cards!! Lots of inspirations! Rainy and warm here today. My gardens are looking good with all of the rain we been getting here in Louisiana
Have a great day!

Wonderful cards. Spring is coming as least on your blog.
Still snow here but hoping and wishing for warmer weather.
What a great collection of cards. I have the stamp set used on the first card and enjoy creating with it. Thanks for the inspiration for another card design. Thanks, too, for all the cards that inspire me and extend my YNS wish list!
Love the variety of April Showers cards.
Oh my goodness, these are all such sweet cards. Besides the adorable images (which to ME is a given!) The sentiments on all of the cards are simply fantastic! Very well done ladies.
Adorable cards that made me smile. And that is what April showers bring…green grass, spring flowers, and blossoming trees and bushes, and singing birds all around! All of which make me smile…..
Such fun cards! Always fun to see how the designers build the card around the stamps.
The tweet birdie stamp is adorable.
So many fabulous projects! I’m hoping that we will get some April showers here to bring some green grass 🙂
Beautiful cards. Love Kendra’s shaker word. Hugz
April showers brings me time to craft! LOL. I live in WA state so the rain is getting old about now. But soon we will have sun and I can head outside to play with my horses! Love the spring cards posted!
So many inspiring cards!
Such fun cards! I love the Spring theme, I am ready for warmer weather.
Wow, cute samples. The puppy is so adoreable. Great coloring.
oh my these cards are so sweet – love them all especially the cute little rain chicks:)
Wow! Super cute! Great cards. Thanks for the ideas and inspiration. Great work design team
What a fun post – I love each and every happy card! They are all so bright and cheerful, and it’s been SO dismal here lately. Thanks so much for the needed smiles! Great job by all!
These are all soooo fun!!! We’ve had our share of April Showers this year, but that does mean the May flowers will soon follow, right? Love all the bright, cheery cards the team created.
Lovely inspiration! I’m hoping April showers clear the air of allergy season! ?
Great cards! April showers hopefully will bring warmer weather and lots of flowers and a healthy harvest in the summer and fall!
Love all these ideas! I’m inspired! Pretty creations!
Love these various interpretations of spring. Wonderful colour palettes on all these cards.
What wonderful cards! The stamps, as always, are just delightful!
Wonderful inspiration by the designers.. I especially love Koren’s fantastic birthday card!
All the cards are so cute and so well made. What a terrific job you all did! Jumping in puddles is my favorite. Thanks for a chance to win!!!
Awesome spring cards. April showers brings sunshine, warmth and the talk of planting our summer vegetable garden…all very hope filled things.
Love all the inspiration. Springtime couldn’t be cuter!
These are ALL. ADORABLE!! We are anxiously awaiting spring here in Iowa. We are actually hoping that the April snow will bring May ? we are all ready for a lot of warm weather and sunshine. The puppy card is my favorite! ?
Wow! This is a lot of inspiration. Francie and the design team have used techniques that I want to keep in mind such is the word shaker card. Wonderful job girls keep it up! Have a happy day.
I hope I don’t have to pick a favorite because I LOVE THEM ALL! So sweet! And such creativity!
Cute cards.
Oh love this Rainy April theme! Kendra’s micro bead filled Smile is my hands down favourite because i can see replicating that with my word dies! Great cards ladies!
Wow! FABULOUS creations from the team! LOVE the theme too ♥
Wow there’s a lot of variation for the one theme and so many different techniques. It’s April showers here in Australia lately despite being Autumn (Fall). I am feeling inspired to turn my Picnic Phoebe tree into an autumn tree! Time to play 😀
How absolutely adorable! Each card is super precious and I love how the designers tailored it to their very own creative touches!!
Wow is that first card with the shaker design awesome! I love those little seed beads and the die sentiments. I also like the sweet little puppy card by Andrea.
Wow! Each card is super beautiful and soooo lovely!! Thank you for all those inspirations team 🙂
These are all really adorable but Julie’s card with the cute bird houses feels like spring! I’ve been having a lot of fun watching the birds and squirrels come to snack in our backyard this month!
I guess April showers help my garden grow, but mostly I don’t like them. These card samples are fabulous!
Great collection of products and projects. Woot woot
Awww!!! Adorable set of cards!!! Really cute!!!
Love Kendra’s card. It’s crisp and simple
and so pretty. The colors are great.
All of the cards are wonderful
but that one just hit the spot.
thanks to everyone for sharing

So lovely cards!
Great cards. They reminded me of things I love about Spring – the singing birds and rainbows!
For me, April showers bring a renewed commitment to spending time outdoors! My family shops for seedlings in May, and we have plans to camp and hit the beach this summer.
For me April Showers help to melt all that dirty snow that sun alone can’t seem to tackle! Lovely cards!!
What beautiful cards. I love the sweet chickie!
Hi YNS,
All of the cards displayed are so sweet! each of them has a unique characteristic and each stamp is well thought out! thanks for sharing 🙂
April showers mean for me that nicer days are near and winter has gone in hiding for the summer to bring cheer 🙂 Some wonderful cards, love them all x
Love to win this.giveaway
I love the pretty spring inspiration!
Such lovely and sweet spring cards! Can’t help but smile as I admire each one!
These are all so fantastic!! April showers usually brings more weeds and soggy, muddy dirt to weed in. It also brings colder weather, which is such a shame as I wish Summer would last forever…..
Such sweet cards for the much awaited arrival of Spring!! Thanks so much for sharing!
Adorable! Each and every one is unique, clever and weĺl thought out Hard to pick a favorite this time. Great job ladies!
Beautiful. Fun. Cute. Awesome inspiration!
This cards are stunning!!
I love all the inspiration from the Spring cards. Maybe it will help bring us some Spring weather!
I especially love the smile card. But all of them are beautiful.
