I said at the beginning of January that I wanted to use up some of the huge stock pile of crafting stash that I already had, before buying new stuff. Its amazing what we squirrel away - my craft cupboard was like a treasure trove when I started looking!
With all of the cold weather and snow that we are experiencing in the UK, I had to turn my mind to Spring and make a card with flowers and pretty colours.
The stamp is from LOTV, stamped in Memento London Fog and coloured with pro markers. The paper is Tea Party by Dovecraft and I found a leaf die by Marianne's which I bought about a year ago and forgot all about! I have had the wooden flowers for absolutely years - I think they were part of a kit from QVC - one of the first purchases I made from them about 10 years ago. I bet there's lots of you who have similar forgotten crafting treasures in the back of a cupboard - go look!!!
I am going to enter this card into the following challenges:
ABC Challenges - Birthday Cards
The Paper Girls Challenge - Wooden elements
Sunday Sketch and Stamp - I used their sketch
Thanks for looking,
Amanda
