Over at Simon Says Stamp the challenge is to use 5 things on your card. Well, this was a challenge for me because I tend to use a lot more than 5 things on a card! Here I used 3 dies, an embossing folder and a bow -- all my favorite things! At Joan's Gardens the challenge is to use butterflies, an embossing folder and a sentiment. The sentiment was computer generated. I think I covered all the requirements for both! LOL!
This was such a fun card to make. Thank you so much for stopping by. I hope your day is sunny and bright!

Love this color combo of orange/yellow, April, as well as the embossing background you used. The bunny is a good summer choice, as it's my all-time favorite summer treat, as well. The butterfly makes for a nice, lacey addition to your card. Glad you were able to participate in the sunny days challenge with us at House Mouse!
ReplyDeleteYou sure did cover everything! Such a fun card April!
