Hi Folks
Don't know about you but I have felt a little cold today. The sun decided to put in a short appearance this morning but this afternoon has been very overcast and grey. Obviously getting ready for the Easter bank holiday weekend lol.
As I have mentioned before I am trying to use up some old stash in my crafty room. Today's card was made using a Hunkydory free kit that came with a crafting magazine - possibly Cardmaking and Papercraft - many weeks and months ago.
I decided to go for an easel card design. The decoupage image and papers are all from the kit. I added my own sentiment, some pearl flourishes and 3d butterfly stickers.
Thanks for popping by and would love to know what you think. I am now off work until Tuesday so hoping to get some crafting in. I have been asked to do some wedding invitation samples for a possible order. The customer concerned would like a square pocketfold invite. Never done one of these before so need to do some research. Wish me luck.
I would like to enter this into the following challenges:

Crafty Calendar - Things with wings
Creative Card Crew - Spring
Paper Crafting Journey - For that special lady
Brown Sugar - Mothers Day
