In the garden

Hello

Most of the snow has gone now but the garden resembles a paddling pool instead, I can't wait for the warmer/drier days when we can get out there.  Anyhow, I've a gardening inspired card instead! And I'm rather pleased with how it turned out, so there are 3 pictures!

Items used:

Stamp: Stamping Bella (Pippa Loves to Plant)
Sentiment stamp from my stash
Coloured with ProMarkers
Papers from stash (could be Dovecraft??)
Flowers from stash (most likely from The Ribbonsgirls)
The heart is from my stash
