A Spring Garden

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

We are still having a wet Spring, but those Spring showers bring May flowers! I played with my Cricut Explore to create a little garden scene. Card is 5" x 6 1/2" white cardstock. All papers are from the scrap stack - a good way to use to all those smaller papers for these smaller cuts.
Cricut Cartridges:
April Showers - Phrase "Spring Garden" is cut 2.50"w.
Celebrate with Flourish - Sun/Cloud is cut 3"w.
Create a Critter - Tulips cut 1.50"h., Butterfly is cut .75"w.
Freshly Picked - Garden Gate is cut 2.50"h., Hoe is cut 2"h., Hat is cut 1.25"w.

I enjoyed creating the little Spring Garden. Working with the Cricut Explore makes it very easy to find the images. Although, I do take a lot of time choosing which image is better for my purpose--so many pretty images to choose from! I would like to work in my flower beds but we had rain during the night. Now I hear thunder! Maybe a day to play with the Explore!!

Challenges:
BBTB2 - Either/or both a sun or cloud
Die Cuttin Divas - Ch. 212 Something you would find in a garden.
FCCB - Ch.249 Welcome Spring - Whatever reminds you of Spring.
My Time To Craft! -Ch. 289 Spring Flowers

Hope you enjoy this card! Thanks for your visit and comment!

  8. Love your garden scene card Glenda! Yes, it has been a wet spring here too. The Explore does make it nice to find an image, but harder to chose which image to use as there are so many to chose from! lol Have a wonderful Sunday!! Hugs, Brenda
