Yellow Tulips - PPA34 Sketch Challenge


I just happened across this challenge blog. One thing I don't need is to find a new challenge blog, but I just can't help myself.  This is called Pal's Paper Arts. I rotated it so my image would fit better.

The image is from Fred, She Said.  It's officially Spring and not a minute too soon. We had a very cold and snowy winter and the last of the snow disappeared about a week ago. I thought sure I'd be hiding Easter eggs for the grandkids in the snow banks.  But the snow is gone and the Tulips and Daffodils should be blooming in a week or two.  I'm just pushing the time a little and making mine bloom today!
The designer paper is a retired pack from Close to my Heart.
The Hand Stitching around the card was done with matching embroidery floss.

Other Challenge Blogs this card was made for:
Creative Inspirations - White, Yellow & Green
Bee Crafty - Spring
Crafty Cardmakers - Spring
Incy Wincy - Spring
Lexi's Creations - Easter
Frosted Designs - Think Spring (flower)
