Well, here is a Spring card for you to enjoy if you also have snow you don't know where to go with. I wanted to post this yesterday, since I am trying to make a card a day, however, this one seemed to take me forever to make.
The inspiration for this one came from Midnight Madness Sketch 40. I just love their sketch again this week. They actually give you a choice of two sketches. One simple and one more dramatic. Yes, I always go for dramatic. Other Challenges for this card:
Incy Wincy Designs Challenge 30 to use punches. I used four differnt punches for my card.
C.R.A.F.T Challenge 37 - Digi Coloring
Pile It On Challenge #6 - Flowers.
I used a Digi image from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps called February Iris. I printed it out and colored it twice. Then cut the second one including all of the tiny inside parts. Gee, maybe that's why it took me forever to make this cards! Then I mounted it on top of the first colored image with foam tape fore a 3D affect.
The The cardstock is Amethyst & the DP is from a retired pack from Close to my Heart. The flowers and leaves were made with punches.
The Hand stitching around the card was done with matching Amethyst Embroidery Floss.
