Less is More Challeng Week 3 - Theme 'Spring'

I have made this card for Less is More Challenge this week and the theme is Spring. I chose this stamp just because of the buds on it and to me this means spring is here when you see all the buds coming out. I have coloured the image with Promarkers and layered it onto some yellow card. My base card is white and I printed the sentiment directly onto the base card. Anyone can enter the 'less is more' challenge each week and you can do this here.

****Blog Candy**** NOW CLOSED


I have decided to give away some blog candy to celebrate my hubby coming home from hospital. He fell on black ice and dislocated and fractured his shoulder. He had to have a general anesthetic to correct this and did not come out of it well and landed up in ICU on a Ventilator. He was very poorly for a while but has now made a good recovery and is now back home. He has still got a long way to go but is happy to be back home. This is to thank all my lovely friends who sent me messages and wishing my hubby a speedy recovery. Thanks to you all. I will make the draw on 19th February which is our Wedding Anniversary. If you don't have a blog you can pm me or send me an email and I will put your name in for you.
