This is my second post today, please scroll down to see my Crafty Calendar Challenge DT card.
A new Allsorts Challenge begins today and Lorraine has chosen the theme of 'Spring'. There is always the option of Anything Goes if you haven't got anything Spring related.
I love to see snowdrops appearing in my garden as a sign that spring it on its way. The snowflake is a preloved die a bought a little while ago and I'm using it for the first time. It didn't come in the packaging, so I don't know the brand. It's a large die which fills a DL card. I die cut the snowdrop in white and used green and vanilla Promarkers to add the colour. The background was embossed with an A4 embossing folder. I'm not sure of the brand as there is nothing written on the folder. It possibly might be Creative Expressions. I added a strip of green organza ribbon and raised up the sentiment on foam pads.
Prizes are from our generous sponsors, AALL and Create and Aldridge Crafts.
I am joining in the following challenges:
You're right snowdrops do say Spring and this is a lovely large die, most of the snowdrop stamps or dies I've seen seem to be small .

ReplyDeleteAwesome, Liz! Snowdrops are possibly the most loved flowers in the world because they herald the end of nasty ol' winter and the arrival of sunny spring!
