Hello Spring

Today I decided to try a box card.  I made it to fit some envelopes I have which are 4 3/4 x 6 3/8.  There is no top or bottom so it folds flat for mailing.  The background image is from Meljen's Designs and the adorable little girl was a gift from Kim at Digi Darla Designs.  Thank you, Kim!  As soon as I saw her I knew she would be perfect for this card.  The opening was cut with my Spellbinders die and then I added some Picket Fence Crackle Paint.

The images have been colored with Prismacolor pencils.  I added some ribbon, butterflies and felt flowers with button centers.






Thanks for visiting and have a blessed day!
