Ready For Spring!

Like alot of us I am so ready for spring!  We haven't had the really bad weather like alot of the country has, but there still has been plenty to grumble about here in Washington state! 



My card today is pretty spring like with the bright pink and green combo.  I used this same combo for a card I posted earlier this week.  I just love the Making Memories Dilly Dally papers and had to use them again.  The card is for the following challenges:  Sentimental Sundays - Anything Goes; City Crafters - Spring Fling  and the Moxie Fab paper piecing challenge.  The stamps used are from Penny Black and Savvy Stamps.   The flowers were paper pieced (obviously!!) and the leaves were colored with Copic markers (sorry... don't remember what colors I used.).   Some bakers twine from the Twinery and Impress and some pink rhinestones finished everything off.  

Thanks for taking a peek... hope spring is coming soon to you!

Supplies:  Cardstock:  Stampin Up! Blushing Bride; PTI white; Patterned Paper:  Making Memories Dilly Dally; Stamps:  Penny Black & Savvy Stamps; Ink:  Memento Bamboo Leaves; Copic Markers; Kaiser Craft Rhinestones; Bakers Twine
