It's May!

 This card was done while playing Craft Roulette, which is a YouTube show on Friday nights. I'd actually never seen it before because I have a standing date with my daughter on Fridays, but she was sick so I happened to see this one. In Craft Roulette, you have to make a project that incorporates four elements that are spun for on a wheel. Last night the elements were: 3 tags, rose colors, May, and masking. I immediately thought of the song from the musical Camelot, where the court goes a-Maying. They sing, of course, this being a musical, and the beginning of the song is, "Tra-la, it's May..." If you want to know the rest of the song, I suggest you search it on the web. My mother's favorite flowers were yellow roses, and it being ten years since we lost her, I decided I wanted to use yellow as one of my rose colors. I picked peach to go with it because we had a peach rosebush in front of the house I used to live in and I always liked it. I masked off the checkerboard design on the tags with Gina K. Masking Magic Strips. The letters in May are cut with Henry's ABCs from Lawn Fawn, and the stamped letters are from a Hero Arts set. The tags are all dies from Sizzix, and the flower buds are Taylored Expressions Buds and Blossoms set. The tra la is stamped in Concord & 9th Grapefruit.
