New month, so new challenge at Quirky Crafts and since it's May, we're doing "May Flowers" for our theme. How much better can you get than a festive flowery card? With Mother's Day right around the corner, it's a great way to get those cards done and to have something to enter into our monthly challenge. We have three sponsors this month: Bloobel Stamps, Delicious Doodles, and Ike's Art.
My first card this month uses an image from Bloobel Stamps called "Thanks for the Flowers." That was such a fun and funny image that I had to add that silly sentiment. :-D
This will be my last month on the DT for Quirky and I want to say a warm goodbye to my Teamies. Waving to all of you. :-D Happy Stamping, NanaConnie

I started with Sketch #249
from Sketch Saturday, turned sideways
and was inspired by the colors
at Just Add Ink.
I used my ProMarkers to color the image, then cut it and the offset mat with a die from Spellbinders. I used ribbon and twine along the side, then added two butterflies. The bottom one is colored with ProMarker and the top one is glittered.
Challenges:
I've also done a second card using an image from another sponsor, Delicious Doodles, called "Daisies + Butterfly."
On this card, I colored with ProMarkers and Copics, then hand cut the image. The flowers, the butterfly and the frame all make up the image. I added it to yellow polka dot paper and made that the card front. Very CAS design, just the image and the background but I really like showcasing the image instead of a pile of embellies. :-D
