Spring.....

Hello....Late posting again....I be off to naughty step...
But I had to go to the hospital for a blood test early this morning....

And as for a update on the gas leak...
They have found it ....outside the house across the road to me....I've had National Grid guys on and off all over the weekend...and the hole out side my house was getting bigger by the day.....and I've been making cups of tea for the workman this morning....

Today's card is a quick one ..made with the free gift that is with this month's Cardmaking and Papercraft magazine....

I stamped the image and coloured it with Promarkers....and cut with oval Die-namics dies...the embossing folder was also with the magazine with I've use some yellow Bazzill card and backed it on some orange.....
Thank you for you comments Joolsx
