Spectrum Noir Challenge Blog - Spring

Hi Everyone

Today's card is my creation for the spectrum noir challenge blog and the theme is spring time.  This image is called April Showers and really i think i should have coloured an image with snow in as it appears it will not go away...........  I need some sunshine desperately.........

Any way i have coloured with my Spectrum Noir pens and made a card base using watercolour card.  The stamp is a sugar nellie and is called April Showers and when i finished colouring i masked the image and stamped some of Sheenas Silhouette grasses in the background. The papers i have used were a freebie from a card making mag that i had kept to use just for the right project.  The die is a spellbinder  Opulent Oval and i have used one of the smaller dies out of the same pack for the sentiment.  The flower is made using a diesire quilling flower die called Blissful flower, in the centre i have used the stamen die and then popped a small button out of my stash to match with the card decoration.  I've also sewn around the edges of my card and added 3 leaves for a dienamic leaf die set.

Hope you like it and don't forget to get your spectrum noirs out and pop over to the blog to take part.
