Hello, friends!!
I hope you are all having a good week so far. I am having a quiet week which is so nice! I do not start school for a few more weeks and my son has gone back to school. Oh my goodness, it is so wonderful and quiet at my house most of the day.
Today's card is not one of my favorites that I have made with the Cricut cartridges from the new release
April Showers Mini. I just love this release too...I think it is one of my favorites. I cut so many things from this cartridge for the layout I made using this cartridge(click
here and scroll to see), so when I starting making the second thing I was nearly out of ideas. However, I made a third thing with this cartridge this weekend that I love. I will post that with er this week or next. I guess I was just crafted out by the time I made this one...sigh

| The paper is from Close to My Heart as is the ribbon. |
 |
| I cut this flower out at 3" and 2 1/2". |
 |
| The stamps are a combo of Papertrey Ink and Close To My Heart. |
 |
| The shapes that the stamped images are on are from punches in my stash that I layered. |
Have a wonderful Wednesday!!

Hey girl this may not be one of your favs but it is cute...I think I know what the problem is you love the Mother's Day mini too and you did layered flowers w/that one but this one is really sweet too..and I'm positive you've done more things last week-end than all of your gal pals put together so never doubt how special each and every piece you do is!! Thank you for bringing a bit of spring into my morning here in Canton, MI it's a brrrrr 28 out.....and that's not the wind chill factor.

Cute...I love the colours. This cart will be great for making 3D flowers for all sorts of projects.
Yes, kids went back to school and now one is home sick. Oh well...Loved your ideas. Your card is one of my fav's! Probably will buy this cart or Mother's day one. Loving that the flowers are all together on one cart.
I'm not understanding why you don't love this card. It's super cute. Better than any card I've ever made. Thank you for sharing. can't wait to see the project you love....I can only imagine how wonderful.
Very pretty floral card!!

You may not think this is a favorite but it is darling. I guess this master gardener is going to have to put this cart on my wish list too.
Love the paper+ribbon for your flower card! So very pretty - thanks for sharing!
And you don't like this why? I think this is a darling card. Love the flower and how you have the bow like the leaves. Very cute.
Sometimes things just don't turn out how you pictured them in your head but even if it is not your fav it is still wonderful!

I think it is great! TFS
I love this card and the colors. The way you integrated the ribbon was great.
Very funny!!! I just think you had a case of new cartridge excitement overdose!!!
If this isn't your favorite one, I can't wait to see the rest that you have made from this cartridge. I love this one, the flowers really patch the paper and are really cute.
oooooh I like it...great color combo cute flower..and I like the way the leafs......
I love it! I love being able to go to my stash and putting together a card like you do too!
Blessings, Donna
