Colours of spring


 Good morning, after a freezing cold Monday it's been a lovely week here- lots of sunshine, mild and dry- the garden has really enjoyed it too with everything springing to life! Loads of daffs, crocus and snowdrops out even a few early tulips (in pots)! Rebus and forsythia in full bloom, the magnolia is beginning to open up as is the camellia and all the trees and shrubs are wearing leaf buds- lots of spring colours out there! Which leads me onto this week's challenge at Crafty Catz- it's my turn to host and pick a theme for the DT-optional of course for anyone who would like to join in- and the theme I chose is Colours of Spring.

Our sponsor this week is LeAnn’s World 101 




My card features Molly, courtesy of our sponsor,  I've coloured this sweet little girl with Copics, framed her with some pretty green DP and added a corner die cut that I've had for years and never used,  I cut it twice, once in yellow for the butterfly. The sentiment is a stamp.

There's plenty more to see over at Crafty Catz, so do take a moment to see what My teamies have been up to this week.
Thanks for visiting

It is lovely to see all the fresh new growth in the garden and hedgerows but your Forsythia sound ahead of here, we have hints of colour but not full bloom yet.

And your Spring card is a delight Chris with all the fresh colours.
