Get Funky Springy Thanks!


Morning Peeps,




Its my day to give you a bit more inspiration to join in with our Kathy's


theme this month over on the Get Funky challenge blog There's no better time to get crafting now its warming up and everything is coming into bud. I love spring. I love walking with princess fluffy and seeing something new flower almost everyday at the moment, its magical. This morning the cherry blossoms are really starting to come out along the fields near our house and yesterday I saw 2 peacock butterflies frolicking around in the sun. I just love spring so much!

I really loved the freebie paper made by our gorgeous Anice this month, it is really gorgeous and when its printed out it looks just like tapestry. If you haven't seen it yet, please pop into the shop by clicking the piccy because it is too good to miss.

Free craft backing papers to download for card making and scrapbooking 
I used it to make a springy themed Thank you card. I added a couple of floaty butterflies fluttering their way around the front. I layered them up by using a plain green core card so they look more fluttery :) a few faux brads, along with a little bit of Tim Holtz (mmm...Tim...) Chip Block die cut letters to make the 'thanks' sentiment. I also doodlied some little dots on the letters to pop them out a bit!! The ribbon has been in my stash for ages but it was calling out to be used on this card!!!
