I decided to create a fusion this time and was inspired by the flowers, the wreath, the colors and, of course, the sketch.
A year or so back, I stamped a whole heap of these adorable flowers and leaves from SugarPea Designs in many different SSS inks. I die-cut them all and tucked them in with the stamps. I've now made three different cards using these and having them pre-stamped and cut makes the job so much quicker! The gingham paper is from MFT and adhered to a white card base. I then used foam tape to adhere the angled panels on top. The wreath was adhered with a mixture of liquid glue and foam tape. A thanks sentiment finishes the card.
Thanks for visiting! The design team have created some gorgeous cards so I hope you'll check them out and come join us in the gallery.

This is STUNNING!! I LOVE the beautiful colors you used for the flowers!! Great take on the challenge!
Beautiful spring card! Love the slash of green behind the wreath!
Hello, Karren! It's so wonderful seeing your beautiful Spring card - although it's not where you are ;) - in our gallery!! Love that wreath with such pretty flowers!! Thank you so much for playing with the challenge at Retro Rubber and hope you will join us again soon!
I LOVE your spring wreath against the pretty green gingham, Karren! Thank you for sharing it with us at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge this week!
This is so striking, Karren, with that slash of colour behind the pretty flowers. I love it when I rediscover a stash of already stamped bits so that you I concentrate on the designing rather than the making of the elements. Yours has certainly worked out really well. Love it! Thanks for joining us at Retro Rubber Challenges this time.
So Gorgeous and such a clever design Karren!
You did such an amazing job combining the sketch and inspiration photo, Karren! I love your choice of flowers and the pretty gingham papers you used for the background! I also love the beautiful spring colors you chose for this card...this is sure to inspire everyone to play along!
WOW!! I love the fabulous splash of green on your card, what a fabulous design!!! It makes your beautiful wreath really pop!!
Thank you for sharing with RETRO RUBBER, hope your play again soon.
Hugs.
Wow beautiful design and just the flowers you have used with the recessed patterned paper. Looks brilliant Karren.
This is absolutely stunning! I love the slither of gingham paper, making the flowers pop even more. I like to stamp and cut my stamp sets in advance. I normally do it with new ones and it's fun to be able to just pull them out and make a few cards with minimal effort. Thanks for playing along at Retro Rubber. Claire DT
This is a card after my own heart! LOVE!
That wreath is truly lovely!! What a creative and perfect fusion!
This is a very pretty card. I love the v-shaped colour insert, such a great contrast to the round wreath and soft flower shapes. Perfect!
Love the inset triangular gingham paper with the die cut flowers. The wreath is a perfect touch to this sweet CAS card. Thanks so much for sharing and playing along with Retro Rubber.
This is a beauty! I love how you took the bunny inspiration and turned it into a floral design and combined it with the sketch.
