Blooming with Casology

Hi everyone,

Another day, another card and another Casology challenge. This time the cue word is 'bloom.'




Unfortunately I'm one of those card makers who finds it very difficult to throw away the tiniest scraps of patterned paper. I have a whole file full of MME scraps and this was the perfect card to use some of them up. I punched a flower from a die cut square of bazzil, covered the petals with some coordinating papers and covered the flower with the cut square, using some dimensional tape. Has to be one of the easiest, quickest and cheapest cards I've made in a long time!

Hope your day is blooming - thanks for stopping!
