Our cardmaking group had a card exchange and so I decided to play along, I went with a spring theme and I hadn't used my step card die for quite some time so I thought it was time to break it out. I love the arbor with the flowers blooming over it.
I took a top view since you couldn't see the tiny flowers on the step area of the card.
The little birdie is a wooden bird, I just added a little ink to him, and a little bush he could sit on. I shaped the little flowers with a foam mat and my stylus and added stickles to the center. Colored the planter and bush with markers.

I usually try to wait to write in them after my picture taking but forgot this time. I also forgot to write down the paper I used.
I would like to share my card with the Four Seasons Challenge Spring

ReplyDeleteYour spring-themed step card is absolutely delightful! The arbor with blooming flowers and the little birdie perched on the bush create such a charming scene. The attention to detail, like shaping the flowers and adding stickles to the centers, truly brings the card to life. It's evident that a lot of love and creativity went into making it.
