Sweet Spring!

Hi Everyone,

 I hope you are all going well, and have been having fun in your craft spaces, I know I have today!

I have been working on a card for the brand new challenge blog Sweet Stamping Pixies and for there very first challenge the theme is Spring, now I know here in Aussie land we are heading into Autumn , but I thought this way I can dream about those lovely Spring days , hehehe

Now these are colours that are a bit different for me, but this very pretty Kaisercraft paper called Tea at Elsie's got me started , and then I just couldn't stop lol. I was very happy with the way it all came together.

Here's a close up of the very sweet Swiss Pixie Leisel and her Wheelbarrow and the Swiss Birdhouse.

I have added Clear Spica pen to her wings ,butterflies and the heart , but you can't see it in the photo , grrrr.

All That Scraps Wednesday Challenge is Anything goes so I am going to enter this little sweetie there also.

This is the inside , the dies are a set from Nellie's called Square Lily.

These dies cut beautifully , I use my cuttlebug that I have had since day one, and they cut like a dream.

If you are anything like me , sometimes I am a little scared of brands I don't know , until I read a few reviews , but I was very impressed with this range. So of course I got a couple more lol.

and you can make a button with this set , that matches your card perfectly! Did you see the little cross over on my button , that's card stock , I got this idea from the lovely Pam Sparks, she makes the most beautiful cards and so helpful , you can visit Pam at her blog HERE.

The images , dies , sentiment , leaves all came from Bizzy Bec's Online Store , the images are older lines and so is my DP, But if you are looking for something just email Bec and if it's a company that she keeps she may be able to help you. Bec is wonderful to deal with , so don't be shy , hehehe
