It's Spring!
I've been out in the garden without my coat on admiring the crocuses, snowdrops and the lovely tête a tête daffodils that are just coming out. The sun is out and there are even a few bees around. I've also been putting the finishing touches to an easel card I started last night.
This lovely hyacinth, coloured with promarkers, is a Graphicus stamp and the papers are from the capsule collection by Papermania. I found the ribbon in my stash and sprayed the flowers with creative colour sprays to blend in. I'm entering this in three challenges - Allsorts, Rosie D's and By the Cute and Girly, Where the themes are Spring is in the Air and Think Spring. Thanks for looking and don't forget to check out the Sir Stampalot challenge blog!

Hi Sally,
I agree isn't it grand to see some colour in the gardens again. Particularly the daffs. I love my daffs.
Fabulous spring card too.

Hi Sally - thanks so much for your lovely welcome back message - it really is appreciated. We obviously both love flowers too! The Daffodil photo is beautiful, and so is the easel card. Love the papers and the Elusive Images flower stamp.
