Flower Power

Hello lovely people,

I am back with my next belated card share from Thursday and it's my guest DT card for A Little Bit Crafty where this month's theme is...

FLOWER POWER

This is the card I sent to my Mother-in-law for Mother's Day and it's a fairly CAS design.  I couldn't wait to get my hands on the relatives tags from LOTV to match the general sentiment ones I already have and they are so useful!



I love this sweet Tilda and have gone for springtime colours and little dots of pearl pen for a subtle touch of bling.

Spring flowers

Hello lovely people,

This is my second post today so if you are looking for my guest DT card for A Little Bit Crafty then please scroll down :-)

It certainly feels to me like Spring is well and truly here with all this lovely sunshine and everything growing away in my garden, so now I have to split my time between gardening and crafting.  What about the housework?  Hmm, best not go there!

Anyhoo,  we have a new challenge for you at All Dressed Up and our theme is...

SPRING

I bet you never would have guessed that with all my waffle about Spring at the start of this post ;-)
I've gone for pretty spring shades and flowers... oooh yes, those flowers are from my newly acquired (and quite enormous!) stash of WOC flowers.  I got all sorts of types, sizes and colours and am having lots of fun using them :-D


Of course, I will just have to share a closer look at this little cutie.  There is a touch of Stickles too but in very small dots so it's mostly invisible in the photos!
