Pastel Flowers and Hearts

A short post tonight it’s been a busy weekend; food shopping, housework and ironing yesterday! …Not exactly fun but necessary as was working again today Tonight’s card is a pretty pastel spring card with lots of die cut elements, this is one of the cards I completed last week, but have not had the chance to post due to work. I haven’t crafted at all this week so hoping to get the opportunity later tonight even an hour would be perfect as back to work again tomorrow. I love the colour combination of this one and the flowers I think look really pretty. I also got to play with my new heart dies and stamps here, The cute furry bunny was a magazine freebie isn't she sweet, I hope you got some crafty time and have had a great weekend whatever you did …thanks for visiting and hope you have a super duper week…Hugs Andrea X

A Happy Hello
