The Pencil Case - N = New Blooms/Spring Flowers!

Hello! Happy Saturday! How is everyone? Good I hope!

We have a new challenge over on THE PENCIL CASE blog this fortnight and our theme is New Blooms/Spring Flowers, so use more than one of the same thing on your project.  As always the DT is showcasing the incredible LYRA REMBRANDT POLYCOLOR PENCILS.

This time we are sponsored by the fabulous…
………who are very kindly offering an amazing prize so check out THE BLOG for details.
My card today was inspired almost solely by my ribbon. Yes, I was experimenting with my bow maker, using the first ribbon from the drawer, and really loved the triple bow I created but it didn’t match anything.  I had originally decided to colour my MUMS IN BASKET  in hues of yellow but as these flowers can come in a myriad of colours I thought ‘coordinate with your bow you fool’…and so I did.
