Hello everyone and yay we are almost into March which is one of my favourite months because it heralds spring! We have been having some unseasonably warm and sunny weather hereabouts and I have been loving it. The snowdrops, daffodils and crocuses are in full flower and the mornings and evenings are getting lighter. I am full of contradictions though because I also love autumn when the days get shorter and there is a nip in the air. Perhaps the contrast is what pleases me? Anyway, I hope that whatever weather you are having is being kind to you. Another thing to celebrate is the start of another challenge over at Addicted to Stamps and More.
This time we have some photo inspiration for you and I can't wait to see how this picture will inspire you.

I was inspired by the colours, the flower swag at the top of the notice board and the planks in the door, to come up with this card.
I used the Papertrey Ink Embellished Elegance stamp and die set for most of the images, and added in a Happy die from another set.
The background was made with a retired PTI impression plate to give the board effect and I used a stitched frame die to finish it off.
You will find lots of inspiration from my talented Teamies over on the ATSM blog and I hope you will be inspired to join us this time.
I'd like to go and play at
