Nature, inspiration and a challenge



Back in March I saw this wonderful card by Julie Ebersole that I wanted to CASE. Also, for the last few weeks when I stand at my kitchen window I look out on to a small bunch of deep richly coloured tulips with an acid lime backdrop of new Cornus leaves and I've been itching to pull out matching cardstock! Then to top it off I saw this weeks Play Date Cafe colours and they were a perfect match! So with cardstock in hand and the fab inspiration from Julie's card, I made this little thinking of you card.


Those colours are just made to go together. I added the little button to bring in the grey from the challenge colours.


Keeping posts short and sweet at the moment - things have been a bit hectic. I had a lovely time with my Mum for a few days and am now in that post-visitor tidy up phase!
