Wild Orchid Crafts Challenge

Thank you everyone who visited me yesterday for the Lili of the Valley Blog hop.  I sure hope you like what you saw on the hop.  It was nice to read all the sweet comments.

I have a card today for the Wild Orchid Crafts Challenge where the theme is "SPRING IS IN THE AIR".  What could be more Springy than this sweet little image from Stamp and Create called Garden Bunnies which you can find HERE.  I tried to use the most Springy flowers I could also.  


This is the second image I bought from this line and I just love them! They are too sweet for words!

Here you can see I used the gorgeous Lilac Classic Rose, 20mm Baby Pink Open Roses, and 15mm Yellow Open Roses.   I also scattered my favorite filler flowers Baby Blue Gypsophila.




I used Stardust Stickles here and there also for a bit of shimmer.  I colored the dress with a combination of Spun Sugar and Dusty Concord with Black Soot for the shading. 

Card Ingredients:

Stamps: Paper Trey Ink Signature Greetings  from a very dear friend and Garden Bunnies
Inks:  Distress Inks
Paper:  K&Co. Watercolor Bouquet
Tools:  MS Pine Branch Punch and Garden Trellis Border Punch, Circut for Sentiment frames
Embellies:  Flowers listed above, String pearls that I cut apart and glued, and Guipure Lace all from Wild Orchid Crafts!!!

I hope you will join our challenge.  Please be sure to follow the rules though.  We seem to have to disqualify a lot of  cards due to not following the challenge rules and we sooooo hate doing that!!! We want everyone to have a chance to win the fabulous prizes at WOC.

Thanks again for you sweet comments!  Until next time...................

Hugs, Dena

    What a cheerful card Dena; it's like a garden in bloom itself! You're right about these images, they ae delightful and really sweet aren't they. I just love the oversized hat and the innocence of the theme.
    I don't think I have seen these K&Co papers before, but they are really lovely. They remind me of the lovely fabrics they used to make when I began sewing in my early teens.
    Hope your are having a great day. Linda x
