Ok, I have to admit I have become a little frustrated with the awful weather we are currently experiencing.
I was going to try and do some kind of dance in the garden to encourage the sun but just realised the only thing that would happen is that my kids would disown me lol
Therefore, I have made a couple of cards with the essence of Spring

This first card was made using Ann's Paper art pattern a474. I don't tend to use creams in my stitching and so felt a little outside my comfort zone with this one BUT I just love the result. Combined with 3d Sheet Nel Van Veen 2318 and mounted on to cream and green card - perfect.

How bright and cheery is this card?? I combined an old pattern a262 with a brand new 3d Sheet - Nel Van Veen 2320.

Pattern a469 and a combination of burnt orange and leaf green mounts topped with Nel Van Veen sheet 2312. The beading in this pattern helps to give that little extra 3D effect.

I love the simplicity of this whole design which will enable me to add a personalised touch for the recipient. Pattern a462 is combined with 3d Sheet Megumi 28.
