MC Feb/12 - Layers Pear - Flourish Grow

I absolutely love the way this card turned out... I love using stencils, but don't use them enough. I love that pear die from Spellbinders. I love how I created the background - it uses another of my latest toys, an EK Success deep edge punch "Brick Pattern" ... Anyway to see the details and descriptions, just click on card image.

And I'm using my favorite sentiment stamp from Quietfire Design

I'm also using the 3 pear image from Flourishes.

And it fits for these challenges:
Crafts and Me Challenge  #72 shades of spring
Raise the Bar  #93 Green, Purple (used it in the shading of the pear) + 1 color (reddish tone)
Cupcake Inspirations  #149 see inspiration image below
