First off – I love it because it is free right now. That's right, it's another Sale-A-Bration optional stamp set. Free with a $50 or more order!
However…What I like the best about it is, this is one of those stamp sets that you can design a card layout and use it for all four of the images! All four of today's handmade cards have the same layout – just change the color and embellishments, and Voila!

These are beautiful cards! How exciting! Thanks for the chance to win. Have a great day!
These cards are just beautiful! My favorite is the sunflower card – I love the soft colors and sunflowers are one of my favorite images to color! I do not have this stamp set yet but maybe my luck will change!! Thanks for the wonderful instructions!!
What beautiful cards and box. I love the sunflower, but I have a special liking for sunflowers. I always pick them out of the bunch!
Dawn, these cards are fabulous! I like them all, but I would have to say I love the frog one the best. He is just a cutie!
What a beautiful set! Thanks so much for the instructions! I really enjoy your blog. Your creations are so inspiring! Congrats on your awesome milestone!
Wow such pretty cards & box. Love the tutorial. Thanks for sharing your talent & your generosity!
thank you so much for sharing your box and card patterns! I love your blog!! My favorite card is the tulip one.
You just keep surprising me, Dawn! I love the tulips!
Fabulous cards, so fresh and pretty. My favourite stamp in this set has to be the froggy.. I miss the Un-Frogettable (?) set that SU used to sell.. In the UK we named him Marmite, (Its a yeast extract condiment alot like veggie-mite. Theres no middle ground with marmite!) because you either loved him or hated him!
Thanks again for sharing.

I love the box and the cards. My preference is the tulips. Thanks for the free directions. I’m going to attempt to make them and have them look at least half as good as your pictures. THANKS! Am hoping to get to one of your workshops soon.
Dawn, I cannot believe how adorable this set of cards with matching box is! Well, I should say I DO believe it – as you made it! So stinkin’ cute! I don’t have this stamp set, but hope to get it soon. Thank you so much for sharing all the details so we can re-create it!
You always have the prettiest projects! The colors are amazing!

Love this set of cards!!! I think I like the sunflower card the best–but I’m a little partial to sunflowers 🙂
Thanks for sharing!!!
My favorite is the sunflowers. Love the colors. Thanks so much for the instructions for the box also…..I print the directions and pass them onto friends. They LOVE getting them. 🙂
Julie

Love the Sunflower ones-great ideas yet again-Thanks!
Laura
What a cute gift box. I would be so excited to be gifted such a cute project. My favorite is the frog. I have a weakness for frogs. I like the texture folder that was used on the one design. I am not able to download the pdf for the gift box. Am I the only one having problems?
The tulip is my favorite, but I love them all – especially since I don’t like gardening – but love stamped flowers. Thanks for all that you do.
Wow, this is a fantastic card set!
I love it!
Thank you for your hard work and beautiful blog. As a fellow Demonstrator, I truly appreciate your generosity in sharing these wonderful projects.
You don’t have to include me in the contest – I just wanted to say thank you.
Dawn, I love them all! But if I have to choose one it’s the frog and flowers – he’s so cute!
Thanks so much for sharing all your wonderful work!
Dawn, The box is so cool. Thanks for sharing the directions. I think I like the frog card the best…but just because of the colors. Thanks for sharing
Dawn: WOW, WOW, WOW….I have this stamp set..Thanks to your talents I know have some beautiful examples on how to use this set.
Hmmm…just when I think one is my favorite, I like the next one. I love them all, so thank you so much for sharing the entire project. I think we are all winners in receiving the instructions.
Great project, Dawn. Thank you so much. I visit your site every day because you just inspire me to create. Favorite stamp: I think tulips because I’m looking for signs of spring.
Sue McNeill
I love this project! The frog is my favorite – he makes me smile every time I see him on a card. Thanks again for sharing your talent with all of us.
Truly beautiful cards and holder. They would be a great little gift. Thanks for also including the instructions.
The flowers are exciting and what a great way to use them. Thanks!!!
I always love it when I think I have looked over the entire catalog and dismissed a stamp set. Someone completely creative like YOU comes along, and BAM! Now I “need” another stamp set! Thanks a LOT!!! 🙂
Mr Froggie is my favorite–love the colors! Such a great stamp set and what a cute gift set!
How sweet of you to share your creativity with all of us. I love the frog and the poinsetta the color is really eye catching.
I changed my mind, I like the sunflower. This is my third post and I am not seeing them…. Oh well
I just love all the great ideas you share. It brings a smile to my day.
I love flowers in general (as would be evidenced by my stamp collection) but I would have to say I like the tulips best. Your projects are always great to see (and copy!)
I love them all but my favorite is the poinsettia. TFS!
Dawn, today is the first day that I have seen your blog….can’t wait to come back! I love this!!! You have some major stampin talent. Thanks for sharing and congrats on the hits!!!
I love the poinsettia card the best – how creative to use Melon Mambo, and the chubby little cardinal is just too cute! 🙂
A gorgeous set and ideas. I always look forward to your genius.
I love the basket stamp! Thanks for sharing all you do and share with us.
I love this set, and but my favorite is the poinsettia. Your card set and box is awesome. Thanks for another great download and chance to win!!
My favorite is the watercan and frog…I like the color combo used for that stamp. Thanks for sharing your tutorials!
Your artwork really demonstrates the versatility of that stamp set. It’s been on my “list” to acquire. Now I may just have to get it!
How generous you are–and talented.
These are so wonderful! I love this stamp set, and the cards you made with it. I had a hard time choosing but I think the frog has to be my favorite!
Hard to pick a favorite–love the tulips in the basket–guess because I’m looking forward to spring.
I like the sunflowers ! Thanks !
wow, how can I possibly pick ONE? I’m always looking for cute ideas with this set and this is the best idea ever! they are all adorable, but I guess I’d pick the frog as my favorite because of the color combination.
ooolala, Dawn..you’ve got serious coloring issues…FANTASTIC!! this has been on my list for 10mo. or more; thanks for allowing me a chance to WIN!!!!
Ymmm, BLOG CANDY is always good. This is a very cute box of cards to use with ANY set of four images. Love it! Congrats on your milestone. Love your site, lorijane
All of the images are gorgeous, but I am partial to the tulip one.
WOW!! I never would have thought of these ideas! You always make something great and make things sparkle! You ROCK!!! Thanks for the chance to win stuff!! Love the colors!
I have had my eye on this set for a while. Hope I win!
Your card box is very cute! I like the tulip one the best, tfs your candy with us, and oh, it’s fat-free and calorie-free to boot!
I love this set and would like to win one. The tulips is the one I am more partial to. Thanks for allowing us the chance to win.
Oh Dawn,
Yet another fabulous give away! I really like all the cards, but if I have to pick just one it would be the tulip card.
Thanks for the chance to win.
Love these cards! Its hard to decide between the Poinsettia and the Tulips!
All of the Cards are super cute from the embossing, ribbon, scallop border matt. To have a box to present them in is even better. Thankyou for the Tutorials.
I think the Poinsettia is my favourite as it can be used for Christmas, Mother’s Day, Get Well, Sympathy, Birthday … anything really, and I really love your shading of the image. Although … I have a weakness for that little “froggie” with the watering can, and the lady beattle making its mammoth climb of the day!
I guess I’m pretty anxious for spring so I’ll have to pick the tulip,I can’t wait to see what you are going to do next! Love it!! Thanks for sharing.
Cute set! But I’m a sucker for sunflowers so I believe that’s my favorite.
i can’t decide if i like the frog–for its expression–the sunflowers–because they’re cheery–the poinsettias–because my mom loves cardinals–or the basket of tulips–because i love tulips! it’s a great set, and very generous of you to offer. thanks for the chance to win!
I love the tulips….so ready for spring. Thanks for the chance to win.
Just where do you come up with all of your ideas? I guess I’m brain dead!! HAHA This is the second day and I’m thrilled with your projects. I’m going to my craft room right now and make the card holder box—-THANKS so very much for sharing.
Which one do I like? You’ve got to be kidding!!! What a difficult decision and I love them ALL — guess I really like the poinsettia, but I like the one with the frog too, and then I like the basket of flowers, however the sunflowers are adorable. Hope that helps!!!! LOL! AND great coloring!
I love them all!! I have wanted this stamp set for the longest time and was SO pleased to see it included in the Sale-a-brathon catty. I got my set and haven’t used it yet but just love what you have done with it, so I feel a bit of “casing” for this weekend. Thanks for sharing Dawn! 🙂
love the card box and all the cards. the frog is my fav. Jen
Lovin’ the set. I think the tulips are my faves.
Fabulous job with the coordinated box and card set. They are all beautiful but think my fav is the tulip basket. However, I’d be thrilled with any one piece of the entire set. I’m hoping and praying I’m a winner. Thanks so much for the PDF file!
Hi Dawn, Wow another Fabulous Give Away today, Thanks! I down loaded the PDF’S too, Thank you, Thank you!! I really Love all the cards but, my Favorite is the Frog 4 Sure!!!
Have a Blessed day! And thanks again for the Wonderful Give Aways & PDF’s, Whoo hoo!!!!

Iwould have to say the frog is my favorite card …just really like the colors used for that one best. Lady bug second! Sue
Okay, I must say that I didn’t really care for this stamp set…until now. It’s growing on me….and it’s all your fault! I love them all!!!
I have been debating about getting this set during SAB. Your project has definitely added this set to my “must get this set soon” list. Each card was loveley, bit the poinsetta card was amazing. Thank you for sharing your craftiness with us!
SUCH a cute set!!! I like the poinsettia the best–probably because I LOVE Christmas!
These are amazing, awesome, and awe inspiring. What an exciting opportunity to win more. You must be having so much fun. You go girl.
Blessings
Oh goodie… another project to chase away the winter blahs. I love them all, one for each season but it’s a tie for favorite between tulips and frog. Thanks.
Oh, that’s a silly question to ask, how can I choose among the 4 so versatile images? I like them ALL! Great card set, and a lovely box (of course) : )
I love the sunflower, but all of them are adorable.
You never fail to inspire! Beautiful cards and holder. I’m partial to the sunflower.
Teresa
Oh my, how cute this whole project is!!
Well done. All the cards are so nice, hard to pick
one, but I guess I would be partial to the cute
frog!! Thanks so much for the chance to win and your awesome instructions.
Oh my Dawn that is a lot of comments.. I don’t think I have had 90 comment in the last year together lol.

Love them all but I think the frog is precious!
Thanks Dawn for sharing these, I just love the card set. I havent been on your site before but its fabulous.
How generous of you Dawn to give us all the instructions to make this wonderful set. Love visiting your blog. Tulips are favourite for me.

This is the first time I’ve visited your website. I found it through Stampin’ Addicts. I love some of your ideas, esp this cute notes container. Thanks. You are now added to my favorites!
I love the spring, I want spring to come sooooo bad. Have had enough winter. Debbie
I guess I am a “lurker” as I just started getting your blog two weeks ago I think it was. Anyway recently. Loved what I saw on your blog and I signed on to see more. I love the set today and I diffently like the idea with the circle out of the cardstock. I like the frog the best. My grandson is a big fan of frogs. I have one in my house that was in our waterfall and hadn’t hibernated by Dec. I was afraid he wouldn’t make it so we brought him in from the cold snow.
ohhhhhhhhhhh….how cute…love that set!
This is such a cute little stamp set! Thanks for the opportunity to win it.
I LOVE the frog! He is so stinkin’ happy. 🙂 I actually came to your blog after your introduction on our yahoo group and THEN I ran across this post in the SCS gallery. I had to come a lookin’ and I’m so glad I did.
Thank you for the pdf–I can’t wait to try it. Once I figure out how to center that circle. LOL

Thank You!! Thank You!! This is soooo cute. Love the colors and design. It is just GREAT!!!
My favorite card is the Tulip one but it was very hard to pick. The tulip was just so bright and springy and I’m so ready for spring. The box is amazing! I can’t wait to try it! Thank you so much for sharing and for the chance to win!
This is such a great project, thanks for sharing.

Sunflower and lady bug is my absolute favorite. Your deck of cards is great.
Dawn, you are such an inspiration! Are you sure you wouldnt like to come and live on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia??
Your work is brilliant! Thanks so much for sharing! Gwen
Oh my goodness you make it really hard to choose. They are all delicious. I think I am leaning towards the pointsetta. I love the cardinal on it. But wait I really love sunflowers too. See, I told you it was hard to choose.

Love them all but have to lean towards the little frog guy!! Really cute
I like the sunflower one best, great job!
I’m new to your blog and found these cute cards using A Flower for All Seasons. I wanted to see the PDF for the cards ensemble but all I get is a grey page when I click on it. Any ideas why?
Karen –
Adobe did an update May 2011 and that has seemed to have caused some problems for some browsers. Here’s what Typepad recommends:
“Some versions of Adobe X have bugs preventing PDFs from opening directly in the browser window. Additionally, some browsers better support viewing PDFs in the browser window. We recommends your readers right-click on the PDF file and save it to there computer. Then your readers can open the PDF in their preferred PDF reader without error. Please note: This is a bug with Adobe and not something which is wrong your blog or with your PDF file links.”
Hope that helps!
This would make a really cute drop in gift. I like to have those around for folks that drop in. It makes them feel special to leave with a little “happy”
I just love them all!! Dawn you are the greatest! When I visit your blog I am always surprised by your great talent. I guess thats why I come everyday to check you out. Thanks for the great cards.
Dawn,
I just love your blog and your work is stupendous. I can’t wait to get on line everyday and see what you have created! Keep up the good work!
