Tulips

Hello to all you lovely people, it is a very nice day here in Sheffield, rain is forcast but no sign of it. I have this gorgeous Magnolia Tulip stamp, and the inspiration for this card came from Jules thank you Jules. She even found the stamp for me!!!. I have paper pieced this!! not a promarker in sight.You might find me using this technique more often I really enjoyed doing it. The backing paper is some I had from Hunkydory, Flowers from Wild Orchid crafts and the Butterfly is Joy crafts. I do hope you like it.xxx

I am entering this into

Our weather here isn't too bad .. .. but the dark clouds are looming!! I might get away with not having to water the garden again today at this rate.
