Crafty Bloggers January Challenge.....

Happy Monday everyone.....don't all groan at that comment, haha.
Today I have a card to show that I've made for the Crafty Bloggers Network DT......
We were given a bag of flowers and ribbons to use from Mulberry Crafts, our sponsors for January, and they're so pretty.  
The theme this month is 
SAY IT WITH FLOWERS
Decided I would make a 'window box' and fill it with lovely Spring flowers.....All the recent rain has been making everyone so miserable, I thought looking forward to Spring would be nice.




These little flowers are so cheerful.




The sentiment is computer generated



I love this ornate window die from Spellbinders. I just popped some 'curtains' behind the frame, to brighten it up.
The white 'linen' card is from  
(of course)















Hope you like my little window scene, I think it brightens up a dull morning!
You might notice that I've removed a couple of leaves from the 'snippet' pic.....they just didn't look right, and I'm a bit 'finicky'





Enjoy your Monday everyone, catch you all soon
Would love to hear what you think of my pretty window box.
Barbara

    It's beautiful Barbara. Love the way you've left the textured background plain so that it lets the window and gorgeous flowers do all the work. Just fabulous!
