Spring Flowers

Hello.  Welcome.  I have been playing with spring colours and the Unity sketch and some new (to me) Spellbinders dies.  Maybe if I make enough springy cards then the weather will get springy too.  It's a plan. 



I've used distress inks Wild Honey, Ripe Persimmon, Mowed Lawn, Mustard Seed, something Marmalade and Potting Shed archival.  The main image is Unity Stamps Take Care Of You.  I have used Unity Chickenwire and Bee Happy Hexagons for the background stamping.    I used Spellbinders decagon dies to cut my layers and Simon Says Stamp Stitched die for the tag.  The sentiment is from the take care of you set.

You've gone geometric! It's nice to have that shape repeating along the script in and the background and the colours are great. Lovely card.
