Nature and Blossoms

Hi, it's Jenny today with a card for the new Cherry Blossoms and Dogwoods challenge. I couldn't find my beautiful Impression Obsession Dogwood stamp when I needed it, and this challenge stumped me until I realized that I could turn anything into a cherry blossom.


I created the central image using the Memory Box Meadowbird Branch die set  I cut the branches twice out of brown, white and green card stock. The flowers are from a tiny flower die in my stash and I used a stylus from the McGill Paper Blossoms Tool Kit to shape them.  I cut the bird and colored him with distress ink.

The arrangement was glued to two Spellbinders Circles and they were popped up using Joy! Foam Pads for dimension.


I glued them to the PoppyStamps Claudette Frame which was adhere to a layer of Botanical Tea design paper.  I layered that onto a square of white card stock and then glued the entire sandwich to a 5.5" square blue card.

Last I added a Poppystamps Delaney Butterfly that was covered in Cloud Nine Velvet Microfine Glitter and backed with a pink Poppystamps Cheviot Butterfly and added three Orchid Dew Drops to the bottom corner.

Thanks for visiting and I'm looking forward to seeing your challenge entries this week.  Play along for a chance to win a great prize!
