Spring is Sprung?

 Second post today:
Betty at Flourishes Timeless Tuesday challenged us to use some of the other stamps in our stamp sets...the ones that we might never have used. I chose to make my card with  other stamps in "Spring has Sprung"...the bird and Lily of the Valley images and a border from "Stripe and Stripes" both sets by Flourishes. I stamped my images on White CS ...the bird with Black Tuxedo ink and the floral image and border with Bamboo Leaves ink and colored with Koh-i-noor pencils with OMS and Memento Markers. I sponged with Memento Summer Sky and New Sprout after cutting out the images. I assembled my images following a sketch from The Sweet Stop Challenge. Used Bazzill Blue as card base and mats of GKD Green Grass.
Other supplies: Nesties Oval and Scalloped Oval dies.
                        Blue rose from stash.
Challenges:
Timeless Tuesday #111: Use some of the "other stamps."
The Sweet Shop Sketch Challenge: see on the right
Tuesday Throwdown: Theme is florals.

Wish Spring really had sprung, but it keeps snowing.....Mother Nature needs a new calendar, don't cha think??
