I was spoiled for choice when I loaded up my Crafting World CD "Through the year with Seraphina" as there are lots of images and backgrounds for each of the four seasons of the year, but with Spring not TOO far away now, I decided to use this lovely image of kite flying on a blustery spring day. I love the little touches like the spring flowers in the corner and the pretty backing papers, and I was really intrigued by this topper set that has one fully coloured image printed like a completed jigsaw, one without the jigsaw lines but in a fainter print and one separate set of jigsaw pieces.
I decided to use the bold jigsaw image on the card front:
The paler image on the right hand flap:
And add the jigsaw pieces, all cut out, in an envelope in the inside centre panel:
So the recipient can take them out of the envelope and assemble the jigsaw themselves on the paler image.
I would like to share this with:

Love this card Jane. Of course I saw it a while ago and I was so impressed that I purchased a jigsaw die cut and have already used it. Great fun. Thank you for your super GDT cards.

What a great idea Jane. I must say you do often come up with some really interesting ideas. I love this one. It's not not CD O have so guess another on the wish list!!! Love the image too. Thank you for being an inspiring GD at CD Sunday. Wynn DT
Carol you and me alike. Just look at the mistakes on my comment lol xx
LOL, I'll just sit here and giggle at you two while you get yourselves sorted out, all the while smiling smugly as if I never make a typo!

What an incredibly sweet little image and a lovely idea to include the pieces inside. I have a jigsaw die and use it on shop bought cards that I receive - when the occasion is over of cause. Barbxx
A fabulous card Jane, such a lovely image and great details - such a brilliant idea to include the jig saw pieces.

Like Di - I had missed your jigsaw card (just seen Di's post on her blog) and love your card. Fabulous idea to add the pieces in an envelope so the recipient can make the jigsaw themselves as well.
