Springtime Card

Welcome back Scrapy Land bloggers and we have another exciting challenge for you at Scrapy Land Blog challenge 36 called "Tie One On" including a bow (die or ribbon).  Scrapy Land has over 40-named brand dies at discounted prices.  The customer service is top-notched and you will get your orders to you fast.  Normally, I get my order within three days which is great. 
Easter and St. Patrick's Day is around the corner and Scrapy Land has those dies that will make your card stand out with that "WOW" look.

While we still have snow on the ground, I am thinking spring and beautiful pastel colors.  My little sweet picture is from Sylvia Zet Wee digi stamps online.  I colored it with colored pencils and used the Starfire glitter on the flowers by Sparkle N Sprinkle.  The sentiment is an old Stampin Up stamp.

The oval doily die is the Cheery Lynn Designs Kiwi Oval frame, the green vine is the Sue Wilson-Finishing Touches-Petite Vinery.  I am using the vinery often with my flowers and prefer not to glue but just part of the stem and leave the vines and leaves loose.  The corners is from the Sue Wilson-Scandinavian corner/border/tag set.  I am loving this set and like the small corner die for many of my cards.  I use the border often and glue ribbon or pearls in the middle of the border.  In the center of the flowers is the Impression Obsession fir sprig set.  I like this better than using a punch since the fir sprig die cuts through regular and heavy card stock as well as glitter card stock. 

The embossing folder is the Sue Wilson Designs-Rambling Blossoms.  The gorgeous ribbon is the light coral satin ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon that has a variety and reasonably priced ribbon and Wild Orchid Craft flowers that I used on this card and this company also has fast service and great customer services. 

I made the pearl and diamond embellishment on the ribbon using a flat button. 

Thank you so much and I always enjoy your comments.
