In the spring time

Hello folks and a very happy Easter Saturday to you all

It is a four day weekend here in the UK and the first Bank holidays of the year. And in true British style the weather is wild and windy so I am tucked up in my craft room busily completing my Easter cards although I do need to venture out to the opticians later.

Today sees the launch of a new challenge at Fantasy Stampers and this fortnight our new challenge is - 

In the Springtime

Please remember that we are a stamping challenge and the main feature of your project must be stamped (no digi stamps please).

Here is my DT card for the challenge -
