Stamp Something & Creative Card Crew

Ever had a card that takes you ALL Day to do well thats this one! At first I had a darkers card underneath the DP but wanted to keep it quite pale, then I spent 2 hours looking for my prima flowers only for them to look AWFUL on the card, then I had to make corners as I dont have a punch or die cute & the card looked REALLY bare without it & I REALLY wanted to use ribbon on somewhere but didnt know where!! But phew I think I am finally happy with my card.

It fits into 2 challenges as well which I did by accident, I wanted to do the challenge on stamp something, which is green yellow & pink, & creative card crew, which is create a scene. I generally think all the way through ohh I'll combine the 2 but I only thought that at the end with this card (unless I did think that at the beginning & forgot lol!)

WOW What a lovely day today has been, what I saw off it sat at work anyway, the 20 minutes it took me to walk home was lovely in the sunshine :D

So I've been sat here all night trying to come up with a card for the Creative Card Crew challenge blog which has a theme of Whatever the Weather this week, I orginally thought of using Tilda & the raincloud but then get stuck so......... it's quite similar to my previous card but I liked the scene, so I used a different Tilda & I think she looks quite sweet sitting on the fence in the midle of the field!
