Spring Flower

Hello again! I'm back with a card I made today using this die from Memory Box...


It was a free die with a December purchase from Simon Says stamp. I'm finally using it today but not to make peas in a pod. I thought it would make a pretty flower and I'm loving the turn out!


I ran the die through the cuttlebug 5 times for the petal and then added some ink tho them. Watercolored the background and began layering the petals on. I wanted dimension so that I could play along with the Lawnscaping challenge (Dimension) as well as both Simon Says challenges April showers/ Spring Flowers and In the middle and over at the Die Cut Divas for their In The Garden challenge.


Here is a closer look and the deminsion as well as the stickles I added for a little sparkle!

Thanks for stopping by! Have a fantastic day!
Monica

ETA: I totally flaked my first attempt to link up to Die Cut Divas, so as of today 4/21/2015 you should be able to find my card there too! I can be such a goof...

Supplies:
Memory Box- A pea in the Pod
Ranger- Abondoned Coral and Cracked Pistachio distress inks, Star Dust stickles and watercolor cardstock
