Spring Colours

I think my title should really be 'Spring COLOUR' as I seem to be in a bit of a 'tone on tone' rut at the moment.  This is my card for this weeks Whoopsi Daisy Challenge - Spring Colours:


It turned out rather green didn't it!  The image is from Whoopsi Daisy - sheet 137, coloured with my usual combination of ProMarkers and FlexMarkers.  I have just ordered four more sets of FlexMarkers, I love the brush tips and find them so much easier to blend with than other alcohol markers.  The papers are from Bearly Mine Designs, full details of everything I have used are listed below.

This is the inside of my card, decorated to complement the front:
