Hello everyone and happy May to you all!! It is feeling distinctly warmer here in the UK after weeks of frosts and cold weather. I know it has rained but at least it is a little bit warmer, so much so that I have put the winter boots away and started packing away my jumpers...about time too!!
I paid a visit to Alpaca Pals a couple of weeks ago and made an accidental purchase so just had to colour the beautiful bouquet from the Thanks a Bunch set. I always feel very virtuous buying from Tracey as she is located just over the hill from me so the carbon footprint is quite small, therefore a contribution to saving the planet!! I coloured this rather large beauty with Promarkers and used a few blobs of Stardust Stickles too. The sentiment (also from the set) was heat embossed in white onto a scrap of black cardstock Anyway, this card is to inspire you to join us in the new challenge at

Don't think I will be putting my winter coat away just yet. We drove through a hail storm yesterday afternoon on our way to the Vaccination center for our second jab! :)

What a darling card, Sarah, and so beautifully colored! Like you, I have a hard time adhering ribbons. Usually, I end up adhering them from behind, or woven through things. Your bow looks beautiful! hugs, de

Hi Sarah,
yes you are right the weather is a little warmer but can still chilly around the house so I have not put my jumpers away yet.
Love your wonderful card and that bouquet is so pretty.
You have coloured it perfectly too.
Thank you for joining the MAWTT Challenge.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L. DT

This is absolutely gorgeous! I love that this image covers the whole card and is the main focus - your colouring is perfect too. The sentiment looks great on the black card and the bow really does make it look like a hand tied bouquet. I've never thought of using seam binding instead of ribbon so I'm off to try that idea! Thanks so much for joining in with my challenge this week at Passion for Markers. Hugs, Karen x

Such a beautiful card Sarah ❤️
Love the stamp and your coloring! Well done!
Gorgeous card Sarah, I kinda stopped using ribbon too because of the extra postage! Lucky you having Tracey local, not surprised you made a purchase or two!
Wow what a stunner, Sarah! xx
I love the clean and crisp look on this gorgeous card, Sarah and you have coloured it beautifully. I hear you about the ribbon stash - I have so much and rarely use it any more. Can't bear to part with it though because it is sooo pretty!

Such a gorgeous card and the ribbon tops it off perfectly! Purpule seems to be one of my favorites this year...and I the same way as you with the ribbon, I definitely seem to be a collector.
Hi Sarah
That is one beautiful bouquet of flowers, coloured beautifully!
Love the ribbon bow to tie it together.
Love Jules xx
Ho lovely to see you playing with us Sarah! And what a delightful card as well, love the colours you used to colours the bouquets and the dear little bow is a lovely finishing touch.

So beautiful Sarah. Sometimes, all you need is a large image and your card is done. You've coloured it in beautifully.

How could anyone resist such a gorgeous floral image which looks like it is so fun to color?! You did a brilliant job of it, Sarah, and I love the finishing bow to make it look like a hand-tied bouquet from the garden. I also love the spots of stickles for schparkle! Thank you for sharing with everyone at NBUS! Hugs, Darnell
