Pink, Green, SPRING

The challenges are all about Pink, Green, Spring and being Thankful.  I will be very THANKFUL when Spring gets here.  Working with all the colors and themes has helped know it's about to pop with beauty.



My card was made by using the Tim Holtz Floral Die, then I added a rolled piece to form the center by using a Scalloped Cirlce Die from Spellbinders. I used the Fancy Tag Die from Spellbinders and Sizzix Die for the leaves. There is some distress ink scattered about the flower, doily and pink papers.

This was made for the following challenges:
Joans Gardens Challenge #10  Use the colors Pink and Green, Create a thank you card, Use some kind of stripes ,Use something scalloped  (doily)
The Pink Elephant "Spring Time" TPE95
Stampin' B's  Challenge #102  "Thank You card using Spring Colors. MUST use Pink on your card"
The Pixie Cottage Challenge #61 Use Green or Sketch or both
The Creative Cottage Challenge # 35  Spring has Sprung
Tuesday Throwdown Challenge #40   Lace
Die Cut Dreams  Challenge #85 Mother's Day or Special Friend
The Stamp Man   Challenge #18 Mother's Day--Floral

All of the above challenges have some great inspiration, and beautiful things designed by their Design Team.

Thanks for stopping by, enjoy today and what the coming week has to offer.
Right now we have Thunder, Lightening, Rain. It was too cloudy here to see the "BIG MOON"
but maybe the rain will clean things up a bit and start the grass growing and the flowers blooming!!

Sylvia your card is beautiful. I love that pretty pink flower. We did get to see that big, bright moon last night. I was surprised because it snowed all day yesterday. Good news, it is all melted now. Thanks for joining us in the weekly challenge at Joan's Gardens.
