SPRING HAPPINESS {GDT Country View Challenges}

{GDT Project for Country View Challenges}

I was so honoured when Chris from Country View Challenges emailed me to inform me that I have been a Top 3 Pick for their November Letters Challenge and are invited to do a Guest Design Team Project for them in January.  Thank you so much for the opportunity.  Here is the card that was a Top 3 Pick.

I just could not resist this beautiful image. Being a nature lover I can relate to the beautiful forest scene. She was created by the talented Mi Ran.  Do yourself a favour and hop over to Mi Ran's Etsy shop and check out her awesome digi creations, here.  You can purchase this image here.

I have coloured her with H2O pencils.  The design papers are from BasicGrey and the buttons are from my stash.    The sentiment is a from Create with TLC.  The shapes around the sentiment and at the top were created with a {Doing Life} template and can be purchased here.  The flower embellishments have been created with 2" scalloped square punches and here is my tutorial for them.
