Primrose time at last!

Spring is coming and one of the very first signs it is on the way is when primroses start to appear in the countryside. And every year, they put me in the mood to dig out this gorgeous stamp which I think came from Dimension 4th about 10 to 15 years ago.


It's great for layering and fussy cutting but also looks beautiful used as a stand alone image as I have done here. I've added a sentiment stamped with a stamp from a Creative Expressions snowdrop set that I've had for a couple of years. The flowers along the top are die cut using dies from the current issue of Papercraft essentials and lightly tinted using distress inks and a finger dauber.

I am sharing this with

    I have a lovely yellow primrose in my garden. It should have died years ago as I am no gardener and it came from a basket that Patrick bought me when he was little. It's a cheerful little thing that pops up every spring. Love YOur card. Love Dawn x

    Your fresh spring colours are lovely and I like the variegation in the little flowers and leaves at the top. Your central image is so striking, I can see why you like it so. Thank you for joining us at Retro Rubber Challenge.
