I had a delightful tulip set from Hero Arts gathering dust and thought it was high time to put it to use.
I debated about what the color of the tulips should be and ended up with this pretty violet/purple, courtesy of my Olo Markers. After coloring the image it was die cut with the matching die.
Next a Pinkfresh Studio cover die was used to create a subtle pattern on a panel of green cardstock. I have quite a bit of green cardstock and was happy to find one that was very close to the green Olo marker color. The panel was trimmed down and added to a white card base.
I tried to use a different shape behind the bouquet but the circle worked best. After adhering it to the card front, the flowers and sentiment were added with foam tape, and I used a little bit of hemp twine around the flower stems, like they had to be held together lol!
April brings Spring flowers and we would love to see yours in Spring colors this month! In case you'd like more inspiration, my lovely, talented teammates have plenty to over on the challenge blog. The challenge will remain open until April 25th and I'll be back on the 15th with a new card for my reminder post.
Thanks for stopping by and take care!
