A Quick Spring Card

Happy Thursday! Today I've made a really simple and quick Spring card for card challenge. The challenge is for a group on Facebook I'm a member of called "Love My Cricut". If you are a Cricut lover like me, go check out this group! All the members give each other tips, recommend where to shop for Cricut products, post pics of their finished projects, and have challenges (just for fun!). Here are the rules of this challenge: 1. Make a spring theme card using your Cricut, and 2. The background must be embossed with a Cuttlebug or other embossing machine. This is a picture of my finished card:


 
The card was cut from Doodlecharms cut at 12 inches. The butterfly is from April Showers cut at 3 inches. I hand-cut a scrap of white cardstock for the background and embossed it with the Swiss Dots embossing folder. The butterfly was embossed with the D'vine Swirls embossing folder, and I folded the wings up slightly for a little more dimension. I embellished the card with a light pink ribbon and "SPRING" alphabet stickers. That's it! It took about 20 minutes start to finish. Easy peasy!

Have a great day!
