Hi Everyone,
Hope you're keeping well! We've had all four seasons' worth of weather here in Ireland in the last few days, including some impressive hailstones, but during the majority of time one can smell spring in the air again - finally! Going for walks with my little baba is becoming really pleasant (apart from the days when we're racing with the rain clouds LOL), and it's so nice to see cherry blossom trees and magnolia trees starting to bloom.
I'm feeling totally floral-like recently, and my recently purchased Simon Says Stamp Spring Flowers set is helping me reflect my mood on the cards. I'm so happy I bought this set! I was hesitating for quite a while, but it was money well spent for sure!
Today I am sharing with you a card that I made for the Seven Hills Crafts challenge (link towards the end of the post) - I used the colours from the middle picture as my inspiration. Truth be told, this colour combo itself was in my head even before I have seen the inspiration photos, so I was very happy to see that I'm not the only one who thinks that aquas and yellows go nicely together! :o)
I have to tell you, I am absolutely in love with this card (how modest of me, ha!), and it's definitely one of my recent favourites - I'm not sure if I'm going to part with it anytime soon!
I am entering the card into the following challenges:
Seven Hills Crafts - Monthly challenge - used colours from the middle photo
QKR Stampede - Spring has sprung
SSS Wednesday Challenge - Happy Birthday
Have a fantastic and full of spring week!
