Wow, this is a busy day for posts. Just to try and make life a little simpler, I'm combining several things with this one card. First, it's my day to post over on the DRS blog , so all images are DRS Designs . Second, it's the first Thursday in April so it's time for another Divine Diva Inspiration Challenge Third, I used the sketch challenge for my layout.
I stamped the two sizes of dotty circle frames using a rainbow pad and cut them each out using Spellbinders circle Nesties. I used the same two circle Nesties to cut and inside and outside curve for the stamped semi circle greeting. Two color of green chalk ink were used to stamp the dotty leaf on the green band and a coral chalk ink was used to stamp the ladybug background on the large guava layer.
Swiss dots were embossed on the white panel and I used a coral marker to color each raised dot. A scallop dot border punch was used on the narrow guava panel and I added two green faux brads and dots all around with a white gel pen. The ladybug & flower were stamped twice, colored with Prismacolor pencils and cut out. I used a stylus on the back of one flower to add dimension before attaching it on top of the base image. Stickles was added in the center.
Thanks so much for looking! My blog:The Write Stuff. Sorry! I had to delete a bunch of really old posts from my blog & this is one of them.

Bright and cheerful Spring card! Love the dots and circles, all the layers, the arched greeting, the sparkle in the flower center, the ladybugs, and that you also stamped inside.
