Spring Birthday

Been busy, busy, busy with housework, washing, more washing and tidying up craft stash...OMG looks like I have been doing the spring cleaning isnt it amazing what a bit of sunshine can do...so thought I would take some time out to make a card that I have an order for and enter it into a few challenges...before I get on with a couple more card orders...

Carfty Catz...this week is spring...

Saturday Challenge...the challenge over at The Secret Crafter is also spring...

Passion for promarkers...I have followed their sketch...



The inspiration for my card came from the lovely crocus flowers that are in bloom everywhere just now...isnt it so nice to see some colour on the ground instead of snow...







What did I use?

Papers are the Spring Burst pad from papermania...

The rubber stamp is Shopaholic from Funky Kits...

I paper pieced the shopping bags and coloured the image with promarkers, using the following colours...Meadow Green, Apple Green, Amethyst, Lavender, Ivory, Sandstone, Shale, Dusky Pink, Pastel Pink and last but not least Gold for her buttons...

Flowers made from the xcut retro flower punch, the bling were clear gems for poundland that I coloured using promarkers...

Sentiment is from Craftwork Cards

Enjoy the spring weather and long may it continue...

Thanks for looking
*EDIT to post...no longer entering the promarkers challenge as I am tooo late.lol...I knew I should have left cleaning the windows until another day.lol...

Oh well there's always this weeks one...
