Spring Bloom popup card

 Hi Everyone, another card I forgot to post, this was for hubby's Sister. The story behind this was, that after her 2020 birthday, she gave me a centre popup card, that had been given her. She thought I could take it apart and use it on another card? She said she loved it, but as it was a good idea, I could use it. I said I had a couple of patterns the same.

Last November 2021, for her birthday I made this card for her. I know it looks Spring like, but my original thought of the card was sunflowers and leaves, I cut and added dies together onto the centre first and then whilst doing the front to match thought, OH! this looks too Spring like, too late, I had lots of other cards for family at the time, including Christmas, so she was given it. She was thrilled and loved the bright sunny card she said. She put it centre stage. So it was all OK after all.

flower design centre pop up card 5 - Lori Whitlock
cut with Silhouette die cutting machine
flower and leaf dies - Tattered Lace
sentiment die - maybe Cut & Make
card - Dovecraft

I added the stamped verse onto the back, I forgot to photograph the back,
 probably because I don't usually?
