Spring Is In The Air

Good morning!  Happy Sunday!  Wow, the weekend is just zipping by!  It's sunny and warm here and I can't wait to get out to enjoy it a little.  Before I do, I'm popping in to share a card I made for a few challenges I like to do if I can find the time.   A lot of them had a similar theme of "Spring", so it worked perfectly for me.

Here is my card:


My card base is Papertrey Raspberry Fizz.  The glittery patterned paper in the background is from the Best Creation A Walk in the Garden 6x6 pad.  The other papers are from my scrap bag.  The adorable image is Tummy Time by Elisabeth Bell for Sweet Pea Stamps. I stamped her on Make it Colour Blending Card with Memento Tuxedo Black and colored her with my Copics.  I added lots of pink and yellow glitter to the flowers to make them sparkle. I cut her out and popped her up on foam tape. The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  I cut the layered banner with the Party Banner dies from Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  Three pretty flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts finished my Spring card.

Here is a close-up of the image:


Thanks for stopping by!  I'll be around to visit as soon as I get back this afternoon.

I am entering my card in the following challenges:
Sweet Sketch Wednesday #196 (sketch)
One Sweet Challenge March (use pink, yellow and green)
Sweet Pea Stampers (Spring colors)
Crafting for All Seasons #47 (Spring)
Oozak #12 (anything goes with Spring theme)
Elphine House #39 (glitter it up)
Stamptacular Sunday #206 (use a die)

Here is SSW-196:


Have a wonderful day!
