This is my card for today's challenge....This is my story...
I read the challenge last night before I went to bed and didn't even look at it this morning. When I went to load this card and went to find the challenge number I realized it is called quick May Flowers, was supposed to be a quick card...This was not a quick card but then after Monday's challenge we all know I don't do quick! I hope I don't get kicked out of the challenges!
See the little brad right next to the green ribbon on the bottom of the circle? That is my favorite brad ever....I might not be able to part with this card because of that little brad....That is the first brad I have dropped on the floor and was actually able to find and pick up...It did not hide, it did not have a desire to be sucked up by the vacuum, it cooperated and wanted on this card! That is a first for me!

Whoa!! I'm first to comment? That's a first for me. Usually I'm waaay down the list (Holly actually beat me --she must have hit the submit button a tad sooner than I did). This is beautiful...what perfect paper and delightful design. Marvelous spacing of all those brads..I'm so happy that the little green brad wanted to go on the card so badly that he didn't get lost forever. He's very special, just like you!

OMG, this is jaw-droppingly beautiful. The colors (my fave combo), the details...everything is perfect. Your story nearly had me spewing coffee this morning

You get an A+++ for the perfect alignment of those brads! I'm so happy that one little brad wanted to be on your beautiful card so badly; it knows a good thing when it sees one! I think Toy should come out to Colorado when I do; wouldn't that be fun?!?!

You couldn't have chosen better colors for your May flowers. The pink and green look gorgeous together. Your placing of those brads are great. How do you get them placed so perfectly?
I like the way you did your two ribbons as well. Another really pretty card!
