GDT AT BUNNY ZOE CRAFTS CHALLENGE - PHOTO INSPIRATION -

Morning everyone

I am thrilled and honoured to be joining the Design Team at Bunny Zoe Crafts  as Guest Designer in their lovely challenge today.  There is a fabulous photo inspiration theme, just perfect for those Mother's Day, Valentine and Spring Birthday/Wedding cards!  What a joy this was to work to, it is so pretty.  The stamp I have chosen is one I have wanted for simply ages, it is a Bildmalarna stamp called 'I picked some flowers' (available here)

There is a lovely selection of stamps at Bunny Zoe Crafts  so do pop over and take a look.  It is actually one of my favourite shops, there is lots of choice, and the service is so efficient and fast so you will guess how pleased I was to be chosen as GDT today!  

So onto the card, the image I have coloured with Copics and Promarkers, the papers are Melissa Frances 5th Avenue (aren't they gorgeous! they were perfect for this photo inspiration!) the flowers were from Wild Orchid Crafts the leaves are made using the Martha Stewart 'branch' punch and I think everything else came from my stash.

I have loved every minute of making this card from start to finish, and using such lovely materials and I hope you enjoy looking and hopefully taking part in such a lovely challenge.

Thanks to all at Bunny Zoe Crafts too for choosing me to be their Guest Designer, 

I will be back later to link up some challenges to this card: 

Simon Says Stamp Challenge - Something New ( Bildmalarna stamp) 
My Mum's Craft Shop Challenge - Something new (Bildmalarna stamp)

Have fun,
