Happy Birthday in SPRING (!) colours

Hello Everyone,

I hope that wherever you are, you can see at least signs of spring around you already! We have finally had a few nice enough days in Dublin, and if only I wasn't home-bound by sickness, I surely would be enjoying some nice walks now... Soon... :-)

In the meantime, my sick brain doesn't really feel too crafty, but I managed to make a Bday card for my Godmother. The first colours that come to my mind when I think spring are green and yellow, and so they play an important role on this card. I really wanted to add a button to the purple flower, and since I happened to have no yellow ones in my stash, I... "borrowed" one from an old sweater... Oh well, at least now I have a few more, in case I ever need them! ;-)

The card is, as usual, rather flat, since it's going to be posted, like most of my creations... I guess I will need to start thinking about card boxes soon, so that my cards can get a little bit more dimensional.





I am entering the card into the following challenges:

Passion for ProMarkers - Cut Out Your Images (yes, the LOTV image is fussy-cut! :))
Lili's Little Fairies - All Stitched Up
Cute Card Thursday - Something Borrowed
Divas By Design - Spring Colours
Inky Chicks - Use a background/Object stamp (I used the LOTV stamp, and the "arrows" one)
Totally Gorjuss - Anything goes with sparkle (the LOTV flower has Stickles glitter in the middle)
Creative Creations Challenges - Easter/Spring Creations

Sending some sunshine your way,

M.
