Today I have a card to share that is making me think spring! It's been unusually warm here in Michigan this year. I'm already getting growth on my rose bushes and I can see just the tips of growth on my apple tree! Hopefully the cold spell we're having right now doesn't destroy any of that. Every spring I wait to walk around my apple (and crab apple) trees and take in that glorious smell and I don't want to miss it this year!
This card was inspired by sketch #643 at Try a Sketch on Tuesday. It's such a cool sketch and there as so many things you could create with this! I chose to stamp three different flowers from the stamp set Everlasting Beauty. I actually bought this set because it had a Happy Anniversary sentiment on it. I really wasn't too into the flowers, but I love the cards I've made with it so far! Every one has turned out to be beautiful!
Here is the sketch that we had to work with this time around. I've been challenged to add this card to the Double Trouble Paper Crafting challenge #162. It is to create a project using a favorite floral image. I guess I have three on this card!
The last challenge I'm adding this card to is the Beautiful Blossoms Challenge - Anything Florals.
