Fantabulous Cricut Challenge #53 & CCCC#11

Happy Monday Bloggers! The challenge this week at Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog is to create a project using any spring time theme. The Cricut Cartridge Chaos Challenge is to use the Forever Young cart. For my card, I used paper from DCWV Mariposa stack (the solid papers), DCWV Hippie Chic (umbrella top) and Colorbok English Moss (stripped glittery background). I embossed the base of the card with the Cuttlebug distressed lines folder.  The umbrella, emblem and flowers were cut from the Forever Young cart. I used foam dots behind the umbrella to lift it off the card. The April Showers quote is from a stamp I found in the Michaels $1 bin. I embossed it twice with Zing vanilla embossing powder. The flowers got a spritz of frost shimmer spray. I added pearls from Crystal Sticks to the center of the flowers. The shimmer ribbon is from Michaels from years ago, and I don't even remember where I got the turquoise brads.
