Double D - Springtime Flowers

  Hello Dear Friends!

It's time once again for a new challenge over on the Double D Challenge Blog!
 
Here's today's theme:
 
SPRINGTIME FLOWERS
 
and here's an inspiration board created to help get you started . . .
 
 
 
I just love the spring time when the flowers start popping out of the ground and the grass starts to get green again.  This has been a long, COLD winter and I'm very happy to put it behind me!  LOL


I am always in need of ladies birthday cards, so I let the tulips in the mood board inspire me today.  I love tulips but so do the deer and they get to mine before they even have a chance to get all the way out of the ground!  LOL    Today's tulips are a 3D Topper from Hearty Crafts ... this pack is called Snowdrops (HC 11188).

I thought for sure I had a large Pitcher die but do you think I could find it???  So, for my vase I decided to use a teapot (which I actually do for my spring flowers) and that die is an old Spellbinder set called Tea Service. (can still be found on Amazon)


I die cut the teapot from white card stock then added the gold elements using a Pilot Gold Marker.
A panel from the Mintay 'Dreamer' 6x6 paper pack was used for my background and the sentiment was cut twice using Tutti Designs 'Happy and Birthday' dies.

You'll want to be sure to pop over to the Double D Challenge Blog to see all the details and amazing samples offered up by our VERY TALENTED design team ladies!!

Hope to see you at Double D! 

  As always . . .
