A Spring Day!

Hi There,

My card today was inspired by a few challenges.

It really doesn't feel like Spring here in London but I hope this card makes it feel like Spring for you!


I have been wanting to join in the 'green' inspiration' challenge at Verve since I saw it. I love my Verve stamps and the photo really helped me finish off this card. I had the lay out that I used from the sketch at CAS Colour and Sketches but there just seemed to be something missing. The wood in the photo gave me the idea of using this twine. And once I added this, to me, it all came together!

The sentiment is New Beginnings from Verve and was stamped on this tag I cut from some card I had previously water coloured. The washi is actually a stamp from Uniko.

I have embossed the white card with linen but it is hard to see in the photo and there is a lot of dimension as the base card and tag are all popped up.

This is sat on my craft desk to remind me a few kind words eveyday to someone is like a Spring Day-so I send Happy Thoughts to you all and hope that makes it feel like Spring to you xx

I will also enter this into:

Uniko Challenge-using the green-who are celebrating their 6th Birthday-congrats!
