Spring Inspired Card

It has been a rough and cold winter over here and can not wait for Spring to come in over here in NJ. I have decided I would like to embrace other card making techniques and have been trying my hand at more CAS style cards and I have to say I love it.

This recent one is a Mo Manning image that can be found in Digital form or in stamp form from Penny Black called April.

I decided to sponge the edges of my image and then use some paper from my MME stash. I colored the image with my Copics and then added some pearls from my stash.  The sentiment is from another stamp set and the lace is from my stash as well.

I will be entering this one into a few challenges:

Ooh La La Creations-Spring or Easter
Penny Black-Spring Blooms
Crafty Cardmakers-Spring
Creative Corner-Spring
Mo's Clubhouse-Spring
