Hello!

Happy New Year! We have had a a quiet family time, it's been great just to kick back and do nothing However it's back to reality tomorrow. The snow has returned and looks like it may hang around for a bit now!

My card today is using Susan's Garden Flowers, I love these dies they are so easy to use, yes they take time to build but I honestly enjoy sitting, coloring, shaping and building them. I have a number of them now, For this card I have used columbine and forget-me-not.

The card base is a pre-cut one that I have had in my stash for years but was unsure what to do with them. I have a number of different ones I think they were from Creative Crafting World but I may be wrong! The flowers add dimension to your cards so the sturdy base of the card holds the weight of the flowers well. They also take ink well, I have blended Distress Ink here and it went on smoothly

I am getting back to entering my designs in to challenges, here's the ones I'm entering this one into:
