Spring Training 2012: Card Creation

This Ella Spring Training design exercise has me going in reverse! Instead of applying a card technique or using a card as inspiration for a page, I am using a page as inspiration for a card!

Here's my card:
The "Dotty For You" papers and Art Philosophy cartridge work beautifully together!
This week's challenge at Heart 2 Heart is all about Mother's Day so this card is on it's way over there!

I'll also be shooting this over to "Made Especially for You" for this week's themed challenge!

Tuesday Alchemy will also see this for thier Mothers Day Challenge!

I used the mixed patterns, shadowed butterflies, and a tag from this layout:

Thanks for stopping by today!
