Spring into Easter at Sweet Stampin'

It's Saturday, so there must be a new challenge at Sweet Stampin'!  This week we're sponsored by Lili of the Valley, so I was able to ink up this sweet little stamp which has been too long unused!



Janneke has made a lovely (optional) sketch for us again this week and I've pretty much followed it.  I coloured the image with Distress pens and added a lacy doily to give some definition between the image and the fairly busy Girls Paperie papers.

I added a few flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts and one of their lovely lace butterflies to the top right corner. Finally I added some lace from the Ribbon Girl and a tiny bow.

Do take a look at what my teamies have made over at Sweet Stampin'! We have some great prizes on offer and with the Easter holidays, hopefully you'll find the time to play along!

I'd like to enter this card in the MilkCoffee challenge, which is "Throw on those Flowers"!

Have a lovely weekend.

Hugs
