Hello Spring

Hi Crafty Friends,

Welcome to our February Paper Pros challenge. This month our challenge is hosted by Sandy Diller who has given us the theme .... Spring Fever.

I decided to create another Rockin' Rectangle Pop-up card using the acetate window on the front. You can find Karen's tutorial on how to create this style of card here.

Here is a quick video to see my card in action.

For the background of my card I used Altenew's Pinstripe Stamp set, stamping onto white cardstock using black ink and then turning the card by 90 degrees and stamping again to create a diamond pattern.

For the flowers I again used an Altenew stamp set ... this time Ruffled Flowers. The 'sweet friend' sentiment is also included in the set.

Along the left side of the card I added a Crafter's Companion Hello Edge'ables Word die set. To color the sentiment I sponged the same two orange inks I used for the flowers to give an ombre effect.

I used the scallop rectangle included in the Rockin' Rectangle Pop-up die set to add a sentiment which is from Stampendous. 

I also stamped and die cut a few more flowers and cut them up to add to the sentiment panel, the background and the left panel on the front of the card.
