Bring May flowers, A2 card

Happy Friday to all!!!!

TGIF!!! *insert happy dance* so you know what this means right? It  is time for another Fun Friday Challenge over at Little Scrap Pieces! I am honored to be guest designing this week for the: "...Bring May Flowers ..." challenge.

Without further ado here is my take:


I used the DCWV's April's Stack-a-holic card sketch 
along with papers from the Stack 8 (Green and Blue) and
Floral paper is from DCWV's Adhesive Paper, Borders
Archival ink, Black
Cricut cuts:
 Umbrella (Cricut Alphabet)
Wild Flowers (Pooh and Friends)
 and Tulip (Create a Critter)
Sentiment from Studio 118 
Grosgrain Ribbon
Twine
adhesives
Rickrack from HL
sewing machine, thread
Watercolor markers
White and Kraft  Cardstock



 If you have visited me before, you know I love to add a detachable little something to almost all my cards, this time the focal point is a bookmark :)

I hope you leave inspired! We look forward to your entries for this challenge :)

Don't forget there is still time to come and play on this week's Exploring Cricut Challenge :): It's a Spring Thing!

Challenges:

D.L. Art April's linky party: Anything goes
Cardz TV Stamps DT Challenge #27: Mix it up
