Hello Spring!


Basic Grey has a really fun sketch for a card and I just had to play along!


And it fits the other Basic Grey 1-2-3 challenge too (-: I image - tree 2 papers - strpied and grey green, 3 embellishments; Flower, Butterfly and lace)  Basic Grey Products; Stamps; Japaneese Garden (BG/HA) and patterned Paper; Kioshi.
I combined it with the cherry blossom inspiration from Scrapbooker's Paradise challenge picture and the colors from the Ribbon Reel;


and with the Handmade flower challenge at Truly, madly crafty and the spring time challenge at the Pink Elephant.

Have a great Saturday, hugs, Karin
