First Swim

As it is the meteorological first day of spring today I thought I would share a spring themed card, the weather men always get it wrong don't they!


I have used another one of the fabulous A4 Decoupage Sheets from Splash Crafts, they are great value at only 59p each.



I added some papers from Craft Consortium and also fussy cut some of the flowers from the papers to add as embellishments.  The sentiment is part of the decoupage sheet.



Thank you for visiting my blog today, please leave a comment so that I can come and visit you.

Well that's a huge shock to me, first day of Spring, more like first day of Winter. Gorgeous card, fantastic design and some lovely papers and image. Another racker or should I say another quacker.

What a sweet & lovely family...I really like how you've done the quartered background design and then the staging of the 2 top mats. Adding in the delicate little flowers in colors that go so well with the background dp...such a nice finish to a pretty card. TFS

That is just a darling image of those little quackers with their mom! Beautiful papers and design. Are you actually saying the weather forecasters are WRONG? NO! Say it isn't so! LOL
