Spring Garden Card

It has been gloomy and rainy here for days. It's only January, but I'm ready for Spring!

Today I would like to share a tall, skinny card that I made using Eileen Hull's Sizzix Dies, some paper that reminds me of Spring, and some glitter. Because glitter makes everything a bit brighter! Especially die cuts!

I've had this floral paper for quite some time. The paper is pretty, but the bold print is overpowering and until recently, I wasn't certain how to use it. For this card, I tucked in a few leafy sprigs cut from the Sizzix Leaves, Spring Die to enhance the papers design, I colored them with Eileen's line of ColorBox Blends. I adore these little leaves!

And all good things get topped with a bow! The Ribbon Bow was also placed so that it didn't compete with the floral print. And it works!

If you look closely, you'll see another die that I used. I added the Pleated Ruffle Die to give my card a bit more texture.

I have some other photos, but my internet is giving me fits, so I will have to post those at a later date.
