I'm In The Mood For Spring........


I cased this card from Julie Buehler on her blog Paper Pleasing Ideas. Thanks for the inspiration Julie! One of the things I did differently was to smudge the edges of the flower petals with ink. The three pinks used were Pink Pirouette, Pretty in Pink and Regal Rose. The sentiment from SU So Many Sayings was stamped in Basic Grey. The leaf punches were Martha Stewart and Punch Bunch. The flowers themselves are a Sixxiz Die called Flower Layers. SU sells it in their catalogue. Use several shades of colors to get more depth to your flowers and any basic leaf could be used. Small yellow brads were used on the centers. Sorry I've been so lax in posting. My brother is dealing with pneumonia right now and things are not good. It's very depressing and I have to work hard not to get myself down. He's in God's hands.
