2011-03-10T20:46:00.000-08:00

Well, it's not that I haven't been crafting, I just haven't had a chance to get pictures taken and posts written!

This card was a lot of fun to make and I wanted to share it with you, though, so here I am!

It's an acrylic card, which is a first for me! And, I couldn't find just the right flowers that I wanted to use, so I bought a spray of flowers from the floral section at the craft store and took it apart to make these little flowers! I think they're really cute and the glitter in the centers really makes them shine! I've got so many little flowers left and it was such a bargain to buy them this way! I will definitely buy more flowers this way!

This card fits into the following challenges:

Stamptacular Sunday: "You Lucky Duck" (Good Luck)
