March Roses Challenge

Well, it's the last Sunday of the month, (okay, I am cheating and loading a wee bit early) and I was in charge of selecting this months challenge. I told the girls that I wanted to see Spring flowers. I wanted to be able to smell them, LOL! After the long winter, who would not enjoy the fresh smell of tulips, daffodils, hyacinths, and just any other posy you can imagine.

The next photo is an inside border I created to coordinate with the front.

My base is Grass Green Pure Luxury cs, and a new white I was trying out with Copics called Neena. The flowers are from a set I have had for ages by Close To My Heart. I can't find a name on it, but it has stems, flower heads, bulbs, and even a dirt pocket for an underground view. All of my word stamps are from an Impression Obsession set called Spring Seals. Sponging was done with SU! inks, and 3 of the corners were punched with an MS loopy corner punch. The butterfly and the bee were little guys I found in my stash. Stickles were used for sparkle and the only other embellishment is a single silver brad.

I hope you like my design, and don't forget to check out the other creations by our lovely bouquet!
