Spring Is In The Air

Or at least I wish it was!  It's cold and wet outside today.

I thought I would share a card that I made recently.... it made me think of the start of spring and lighter evenings.

I covered a card blank using distress ink and a doily stencil (yes... I know... I am always using this stencil!).

The JOFY images were stamped and coloured using Polychromo pencils.  They were then carefully cut out.  I added white gel pen detail to parts of them, then added this to the card blank. 

I coloured seam binding with distress ink and added this to the card.  To finish, I added a simple greeting.

I enjoyed making this so made another in a blue colourway!

I am hoping and planning to have a craft filled weekend.... so hoping to have more to share with you soon!
