The flowers are made from felt and while it is not showing well in the photo, the white flower layer is actually glitter felt so there is a little sparkle to the flowers. In the center I added a Silver Mini Brad. They are cut using the Petal Pop-Ups 2 Dies from Taylored Expressions.
The sentiment layer was cut using the Build a Scene - Calendar Dies which is also from Taylored Expressions. The line of Old Olive is the little picket fence that comes in that set of dies. I cut out four of them to get the width and height I needed for that layer. The sentiment is from the Rose Wonder stamp set and stamped using Basic Black Archival ink.
And there you have it. A bright, cheerful clean and simple card that shouts of the flowers of Spring.
The colors I used are from the Color Throwdown Challenge.
The sketch I used is from the Freshly Made Sketches Challenge.
Thanks for stopping in at the Coffee Pot Stamping Cafe,
