Spring Thank You Card

This card is for Crafty Ann's challenge which is a recipe - one digi, 3 colours, 3 flowers and a ribbon. I've used one digi sweet pea flower in 3 different colours for this challenge (maybe cheating a little as i've added a touch of green too)



I am still using stuff up as my printer is inkless atm and these lovely sweet pea images are freebies from  BirdsCards. They are coloured with promarkers, matted onto some pastel green card and mounted on the card with 3d foam tape. The foiled sentiment is from Elusive images matted on some of the same card with a little green ribbon added.
This card is also for the following challenges:
The ABC Challenge: T is for Thank you
Paperplay: Pretty Pastels
I love Digi: A Thank you card
Fab'n'Funky: No DPs

I've got a long weekend off work now and hope to get lots of crafting done, dicky back permitting anyway lol. I love this time of year with all the bank holidays. Its a lovely morning here although the weather forecast isn't too good. I hope you have some sunshine for the bank holiday. Thanks for looking

  14. Oh Claire this is so sweet, I love the sweetpeas and what a great idea to use the image 3 times each with different colours. You know sometimes I just dont think outside of the box!

    I hope your new crafting room is ready for you this weekend! Hope you have a nice celebratory drink after all of the hard work to get it done!

    Enjoy your weekend come rain or shine!
