Today I am sharing a card I created with the brand new Sweet Pea Flowers! I love how they drop down in a big beautiful burst of petals. In the morning, their tiny cups fill with dew and drip down for all the woodland creatures to enjoy!

I knew I wanted to use foam pop dots in order to add more dimension to the card, but I had to figure out a way to be able to piece the tiny petals of the flowers in place without falling out. So I cut a fan-shaped piece of card stock stock out and glued it to the back of the flower heads.

Once the petals were all glued in place, I added the foam pop dots and then glued the flower to my card base.

Then I added Mushrooms and Toadstools, and a few forest friends from Bellina Corner, Serene Rabbit and Bunny Hop. There's another little surprise too, a Magnificent Mini Faerie! She's part of our new May release too.

How would you like to add the Sweet Pea Flowers to your collection? Just leave a comment on this post for an opportunity to win!

Thanks so much for joining me today!

This is just charming! I love the combination of colors, the lovely sweet peas and fun little bunnies. The addition of grass, mushrooms and toadstools is just adorable. The glittery little fairy is so fun on this card.
