So Many Challenges So Little Time

Lately I haven’t had time for to many challenges so it was fun to pile all these challenges together. I designed these two cards for Lucy’s challenge here  and this is the card of Jennifer McGuire’s that I loved and was so inspired by here. I created a pretty sky background with clouds and had my grass cut but, it was just to much for my flower. So this is the end result. For the pattern on the flower I used the Starburst LACE stamp on top of the flower and the leaves. To add color I used distress ink and on the big card some Copic markers. I’m also entering these cards in the Simon Says Stamp Challenge Blog here , Moxie Fab World Lace challenge here and Hero Arts Spring challenge here.
