More Madison Avenue

My adventures with Madison Avenue continue. I am really loving this free Stampin' Up Sale-a-Bration set and it's so different from anything else I have.  Coupled with some of the DP, also from the Sale-a-Bration offer, I've made a card using the cue from Addicted To CAS which is 'Spring'. These are very stylised spring flowers, but the colours, yes it's Calypso Coral again, this time with Lucky Limeade, are so warm and spring-like (unlike the weather this weekend in the UK where there is still snow everywhere)

I really love the way this turned out. I've used a flat bow style this time and two gorgeous brads which coordinate perfectly- here's a close up. Oops, I see now one is not quite centred, oh well, that's the beauty of hand-made!


 I cut out all the flowers and stems and popped them up on dimensionals.  The central stamp is from Decorate a Daisy, love those words, although the first time I read it I thought 'Streetwise? That's a funny thing to write on a card' - can you see what I mean?
