Flower power

Hello again!

 
This is my newest addition to the "first time ever" category - an easel card. I have to say, I've really enjoyed creating it and I think the easel is a brilliant idea. Whoever gets this card (and I already know who but I can't tell you yet lol!) there will be no excuse but to keep it on display ha ha ha!



We've had such a great sunny weather recently that it just seems to have set off all those lovely spring flowers to start "rioting" outside lol ;-). I simply couldn't resist these yummy flowers and flourishes stamps. I just LOVE spring! It helps me wake up from the winter hibernation and "recharge" my batteries. Flower power, that's it!







This card is for the following challenges: City Crafter Challenge Blog CCCB2 (an easel card is a new thing for them as well!), Gingersnap Creations GC51 Random Redhead Challenge (in this challenge you are meant to create something with botanical elements i.e. think flowers, oh yes!), using Kazan’s sketch 51 at 2S4Y.

 
I hope you like it. Happy (crafty) Bank Holiday weekend! ;-)

Materials:
