I made this card for a friend and her husband who have been parent-like friends, and have pulled my fat out of the fire a couple of times!

I got the idea here (http://thecraftsdept.marthastewart.com/2012/05/mothers-day-robin-card-with-rosa-clifford.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+MarthaStewartsCraftBlog+%28Martha+Stewart%27s+Craft+Blog%29  it's the third card in the extra ideas toward the bottom). I believe the original artist hand cuts all her parts, but I used my cricut and the walk thru my garden set. Turtles, ladybugs and daisies. I did hand cut the flower stems :) I also used the cricut for the words (which I ran thru my xyron sticker maker to stick to the card...so much easier for words than trying to apply adhesive!). I jazzed up the turtles with a little glossy accents, and a dab of stickles star dust on the center of the flowers. Voila! I know my friend will appreciate the card, as she is a scrappy girl too ;)

  1. Blogger's silly new dashboard won't let me edit on my phone, but I wanted to clarify that I put the glossy accents on the turtles shells, since you can't really see that in the pic :)
