WPlus9 MMB#14 - Floral Thank You

I can't believe Father's Day is tomorrow.  I'm falling behind again... I make so many cards for my blog but I didn't make one for my dad.  I'm having him over for a BBQ tomorrow so I need to get to it!  I know he will appreciate a home cooked meal more than a hand made card but there's no reason he can't have both.  If I do manage to pull it off I'll post it on Sunday.  Now that I'm committed I have to get it done right?

Today I'm sharing a card I made for the Monday Mood Board at WPlus9.  It's a two week challenge so you have time to play.  Here's the inspiration photo.   Lots of things to love here - the colors (yellow pink and green) and a peek of some patterns the new Borders and Fresh Cut Florals.  


I was catching up on some of my reading and found a CARDS December 2012 issue that features WPlus9 creator Dawn Woleslagle.  I was smitten with her "Merry Christmas" creation on Page 117 and I thought it would be fun to case her this time.  I switched it up a little by changing the stamp set and the color theme, but the pattern is true to Dawn's design.  I hope you like it.  It is really so easy to create a beautiful floral arrangement with this new set.    If you don't have it I highly recommend it.

I hope you are having a great day - now for that Father's Day card!!!  HAHA!!!

Jeanne

There is so much here to fall in love with, Jeanne. I am pinning this card to my Wplus9 board. I love the flower arrangement you put together. Somehow, you are able to combine so many little details and make it all look so pulled together. I always scratch my head in wonder.
