Beautiful monthly color combo at MFT & a neat sketch for the weekly MFT challenge, so I combined them.
The 3 flowers let me also enter my card at CAS-ual Fridays, although I'm not sure about the 1/3 of the card requirement. My sentiment is stamped & embossed, so I think that qualifies for the May challenge at STAMPlorations--first time to enter there. I used MFT Prima Donna Petals dies for my flowers & the sentiment is from MFT Tag You're It. I really like the debossed side of the vellum for a background--done with a Cuttlebug folder. I used a Spellbinder square die to emboss my frame & cut both ends of my scrap with MFT Fishtail Flags. Snippets were used for everything but the card itself, so I'll take this over to Pixies Snippets Playground.
Edited to Add: Just realized I can add this card to the lottery at SSS Wednesday where it's Anything Goes!
