Classy Card Ladies: Spring sketch!


Hi friends!


Every 15th of the month, there's a new CCL challenge

and our hostesses this month are:  LJ and Darlene!

The CCL = Classy Card Ladies and we're divided into 2 teams:

The Diamonds and The Pearls and we 'duel' card kits once a month.

For April, our hostesses came up with a theme of:

spring sketches!




Our gorgeous kit is from LJ and we received the stamped image,

beautiful embellishments and pretty papers 

AND

 Team Diamonds were asked to create our cards using THIS sketch:


This is a beautiful sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches #592!

Here is my card based on this sketch 

and using the beautiful spring flower as a focal point.

This flower is part of the spring Tim Holtz collection

and I was inspired to go with the color yellow.




To follow the sketch, I used the designer papers as a base

and cut up one of the squares into stripes

and highlighted the flower with vellum underneath.


And here's the inside:



that's it for this month's card duel!

Here is the full list of the cardmakers on both teams:
