LOTV Spring + CCT Couples

Well thank goodness it is Friday, I woke up this morning with swollen glands and a sore throat - great, perfect for the weekend.

So, let's have a card to cheer us up shall we?  LILI OF THE VALLEY have a Spring theme this week and CUTE CARD THURSDAY have the theme of Couples, so I've combined them.



Now, I always think of mushrooms as being autumnal but hopefully the spring colours will get over that little continuity error!  Isn't this stamp from LOTV called Toadstool For Two just the sweetest?  I think it would be great for engagement, anniversary or even a quirky wedding card.  Painted with distress inks of course.  Papers are all Dovecraft Back To Basics from collections I and II, you can never have too many spots, but the flowers were punched from a Papermania Capsule Collection.  Matting card is all DCWV.  Craftwork Cards Card Candy for the flower centres and an Oh My Words sentiment.  Martha Stewart branch punch for leaves and a border punch for the pink paper, ooh and I nearly forgot the gorgeous green and gold sticky ribbon from stash to finish off.

Hugs, Sxx
