Connie Can Crop - Cyber Crop - Challenge #1

We're having a Spring Fling Cyber Crop over at Connie Can Crop. For the next 5 days there will be games to play and challenges to do.

Today's challenge is to Create a project that has something jumping off the page.
Example: Action wobble, Foam Tape, Pop Dots, 3D Fold

I used Cricut's, "Walk in my Garden" cartridge to create this card. First I put the entire card base on my mat and drew the flowers using my Cricut pens. I did not cut the flowers out, I just drew them onto the card base. I also drew on the shadow for the sentiment using Cricut's, "Cricut Font and Basic Shapes" cartridge.

Then I drew the flowers onto pink cardstock and cut them out. I layered the flowers and adhered them to the card base with foam pads.

After drawing the sentiment onto some patterned paper I cut it out and attached it to the card base with foam pads.

The butterfly is from a Hero Arts stamp and cut set. After stamping and cutting it out I attached it to the card face with glue then I popped one of the wings up.

The grass is from Cricut's, "Ribbons and Rosettes" cartridge.

I am entering this card into these challenges:
