Celebrate Spring

Spring has finally arrived and I decided to make a card to celebrate that fact. Here is what I have for you today.

My card base is 4 1/4" X 5 1/2". I added a black mat cut at 4 1/8" X 5 3/8". The pink patterned paper is cut at 4" X 5 1/4". I then cut another black mat at 3 1/2" X 4 3/4". The smaller patterned paper piece is cut at 3 1/4" X 4 1/2". Both patterned papers come from the Olive Collection which is a Anna Griffin 6" X 6" Paper Pad that I got through Cutters Creek.

I after adhere the larger mats together and the smaller mats together, I adhered the first two mats to my card base using my ATG gun. I then used some foam squares to pop up the smaller mats.

I pulled out an old Cricut cartridge and cut my poppy from the Storybook Cartridge. I added some pearls to the middle of the flower and adhered it to my card front also with some foam squares.

My sentiment is stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. To finish the card I added 3 more pearls to the lower left hand corner and some white doodle dots to the flower that I added with my white gel pen.
