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.
