Hi Prickley Pear Fans! DT Kim here with you today! I can’t believe May is already here, but I am so happy to see that spring has arrived! I love seeing the grass plumping up and the flowers beginning to bloom! Do you have a favorite thing about spring?
I recently participated in a fun LIVE crafting session with some of my favorite friends, celebrating Prickley Pear and Kendra’s Card Challenge! Did you know that Prickley Pear is a sponsor of Kendra’s Card Challenges? My crafty friends, @LVHandcrafted and @RockyMountainCraftTia all selected sketches from Kendra’s latest challenge and paired them with our favorite Prickley Pear items and crafted live on YouTube. It was so much fun!
I chose the beautiful Spring Flourish Ovals to pair with Sketch # 2. I did some very simple coloring, of the image and used the Flourish Oval Die to cut it out. I also used the Flourish Oval Nesting Dies to die-cut some borders for the focal image.
I really love this sketch, as it is so simple but some small details make it really stand out! You probably don’t know this, but I spent a few years in Australia, and I love ALL things related to that amazing country! When I saw this gorgeous paper with Proteas (the National flower of Australia) all over it, I knew I wanted to use it.
I paired it with some coordinating cardstock colors, and I dry-embossed the main panel using a folder from my stash.
Lastly, I added a loopy bow and some beautiful rhinestone embellishments!
I hope you love this card as much as I do! Thank you so much for spending a few minutes of your day with me! Make sure to head to the shop and check out the Flourish Oval Collection! There is something for every occasion!
Xoxo, Kim
