Fun one, huh?!  I think there are just so many awesome cards to make with this sketch!

On to some details of this card...

I used the same technique with the Springtime Foils Designer Series Paper on this card that I used on THIS PROJECT.  I LOVE coloring the paper this way.  And look how beautiful it turns out...

 

Just makes my heart totally swoon!  😍😍😍  The colors I used here are Lemon Lime Twist, Pool Party, and Bermuda Bay.  And this Springtime Foils paper!  💖💖💖 It's only available through Sale-A-Bration...which ends March 31st.  Just a few days left to get it!!!

This flower is from the "May Flowers" Framelits.  I cut out the large detailed flower in Berry Burst cardstock, adhered it to Berry Burst cardstock, and then just cut around the flower.  Then colored on the inside with Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush, so it's shimmery in real life.

I'm pretty excited about how this card turned out.  Hope you enjoy also!  Thanks so much for visiting!  Head on over to the Paper Craft Crew blog to play along!!

INSPIRATIONAL CHALLENGE #273

Isn't this beautiful and fun!!!  Love it.  I loved the bouquet concept and so wanted to make a "bouquet" of sorts but not so literally...

And want a fun tip?!   Look beyond your punches and what they are designed to punch or cut out.  Check out something fun you can do with the Everyday Label Punch.  If you have a smaller strip of cardstock, put it in your punch like this...

...and punch!  And look at the fun end that gives your projects...

I love it!  What do you think?!  And just for fun, just look at this fun holly up close...

This is done using the Holly Berry Builder Punch that I love so much.  Just punch out a couple holly pieces, and then score down the middle and fold to give it a little dimension.  😍

So what do you think?!  I can't wait to see what you make for this challenge!  Usually...challenges are a week long.  Due to the holidays, this challenge will go for TWO weeks!  🙌  Happy crafting!  Let me know if you have any questions!
