I have a confession to make.
When I designed the template for the April CCC, I thought it was somewhat uninspiring and probably impractical. I figured nobody would attempt to use the thing, preferring to select one of the other parameters instead.
So I was amazed that I not only used the template but really, really liked what I created with it. In fact, I had a hard time letting go of it - lol! Unfortunately, my picture of it is a little dark, but, trust me, it's quite light and lovely in the hand!

- Make card base and round corners.
- Cut patterned paper strips and adhere to card.
- Die cut leaves and adhere.
- Stamp sentiment.
- Die cut flowers, ink edges, and adhere to card with foam dimensional squares.
- Adhere enamel dots.

Adhere the greenery along the stems and leaf centers. Once the glue has set, gently slide your thumbnail along the tips of the leaves to make them curl up and away from the card for a nice dimensional effect.
Thanks for stopping and have a blessed day!
