Spring Brings Flowers

Second Post today.....
 This card was made with some of my first GKD stamps which I still love to stamp.  Spring always brings beautiful blooms and colors which I look forward to each time.  I made this card to cover 5 challenges which are listed below.   I used a GKD grass green card base and layered with my own created designer paper- white paper stamped with a GKD script stamp from Botanicals in Memento Bamboo Leaves ink. I partially stamped the iris stamp from Elegant Flowers in Versamark on 3 rectangles cut with Spellbinders die and heat embossed with Clear EP.  I colored the images with bright color Memento Markers Lulu Lavender, Rose Bud, Cantaloupe,  Dandelion, and Bamboo Leaves. I matted each on Grass Green mats and attached to the card.  I finished with a sentiment of Easter Blessings from GKD Spring Florals on a cut oval of white CS matted on a scalloped oval of the green paper.  I used the sketch shown above from Tuesday Morning Sketches but forgot to use this week's twist so I am not entering their challenge.
