Little Scrap Pieces Fun Friday Challenge-Bring May FLowers

Hello and Welcome to Sherrie Scraps with Passion!!
Hi Everyone! Yippee, it's Friday and.......it's my birthday! Yeah, even the big "50"! Yikes! I have a few things planned and looking forward to a fun weekend that is if we don't get the next snow storm they are talking about. We just got 6-8 inches of snow yesterday and they are calling for more Sunday and Monday, yuk!! I can't wait for spring......I am so ready for warm weather and some sunshine!! 

Another reason I love Fridays is the Fun Friday challenge at Little Scrap Pieces. I happen to be sponsoring the challenge today as well. Here is the prize you could win!
 
The challenge is: 
Bring May Flowers-Use a flower on your card, layout or project
Here is some inspiration:
My card is 5 1/2 with the base layer at 5 1/4. The patter paper is cut at 5 1/8 using papers from My Minds Eye-Fine and Dandy Girl. I then layered a some strip along the bottom along with some pretty lace from Recollections.
I cut the birdcage from the April Showers cartridge at 4" and embossed it with the divine swirls folder. I distressed the edges with frayed burlap, added some jute string and a beautiful embellishment that was in my stash.
The pretty flowers are made using My Creative Times rolled flower dies and the leaves cut at 1" from the Create A Critter 2 cartridge, then all inked.
The sentiment is stamped with My Craft Spots~thank You stamp set and then layered on a My Craft Spot's ~tiny doilies metal die set. I topped it off with a rhinestone flourish and then a sheer double bow.
Hope you stop by Little Scrap Pieces and check out what the amazing and talented Design Team has created for inspiration and then come back and join in! We would love to see what you create!
I am entering this in the following challenges:
1.) Go Fish Challenge #38 Flowers
2.) DL.ART Thankful Thursday April Linky Party~Anything Goes
3.) My Sheri Crafts Challenge # 107 Spring has Sprung
4.) Everyday is an Occasion Sunday {Fun}day #8 Linky Party
Thanks for visiting and have a fabulous weekend!
