Welcome to day two of MFP new release hop. Today we are sharing creation using Spring Things. 
For today I wanted to capture the cute little critters. For my first card I used and old MFP stamp set called Ivy & Blooms. You can find this stamp set HERE. I stamped the cute Ivy bush on Gina K paper using Jennie Bowlin: Stick Candy. I stamped the butterflies on My Minds Eye paper and hand cut them out. I did them two times each so I could have a 3D look. I used two sentiments from the Spring Things stamp set. I inked all the edges of everything with TH Peeled Paint. 


This card I inked the edges using TH Peeled Paint, ribbon by 3 Girls JAM, button by Bazzill Buttons. I also stamped my cute critter caterpillar on the same paper as the butterflies just using the other side. I add some gems to give it that extra sparkle. I used my Fiskar punch scallop boarder. 


Challenges:

Green & Ribbon
Go Fish Challenge: Ribbon

Happy Crafting AJ-
