Friends Are Flowers in the Garden of Life!

Hi everyone!!  Are you ready to get to the first post of the day??  First up is a fun card with some of the new release from Peachy Keen Stamps for the Ribbon Carousel blog.  The current challenge is Showers and Flowers.  For my card, I used my Cricut to cut the shaped card out and then embossed with my Cuttlebug and an embossing folder from the Skyward set.

I painted the embossed clouds white with acrylic paint and a paint brush and then added some pen stitching around the edges of the card.  The flowers are from the April SOTM from Peachy Keen Stamps.  I colored them with my Copic markers and then hand cut some stems out for them.  Here is a closer look.....

I also added a sentiment with the Stitched Curly Label Die from My Creative Time and stamped with the Bloom Where You Are Planted stamp set.  I used some organza ribbon to tie a bow at the top of the card. I hope that you can hop on over to the Ribbon Carousel blog to join us in this super fun challenge and get your name in for a chance to win a Ribbon Carousel of your own!!

Hugs,
Amy
