Jo Blogs: Sunny!

Sunny!

Its gorgeous and sunny here after the storms and rain over the weekend which encouraged me to use a bit more colour this morning creating this card.

I think I might have just made it in time for the Crazy Amigo challenge which is Insects.

Here I used a selection of stamps available from The Artistic Stamper. The butterfly and dragonfly are from the Insects and Butterfly plate and the verse is by Stampers Anonymous.
