Easter or Springtime - GDT card for the Sugar Bowl Challenge

Good Morning my lovely crafty friends.
I hope all is well with you, sending hugs to those in need of the them.

I am so excited and honoured because the lovely Fi  has asked me to be a guest designer at The Sugar Bowl Challenge for this month I love Sugar Nellie stamps, they are amongst the first ones I bought and I still use them now.
Their theme for you this month is
Easter or Springtime

I was very lucky to get to choose a digi stamp from Funky Kits. I picked an adorable image from the Return to Fairy Glen series called Little Bit of Gossip. She was a joy to colour.
I cut an aperture in my (very old) papers cutting around the flowers and butterflies then layering some of them up.

Close up of the adorable image 



Items Used:
Digi Stamp - Sugar Nellie A Little Bit of Gossip coloured with Promarkers
Papers - (Very old) K & Co Tim Coffey
Sentiment - Whimsy Stamps SC Designs Everyday Moments

If you take a look at The Sugar Bowl Challenge blog you will see the gorgeous creation made by the very talented design team.

I would like to enter my card into the following fabulous challenges:
Polka Doodles - Spring is in the Air
Graph'it Markers - Springtime Pastels
I ♥ Promarkers - anything goes
Creative Inspirations - It's a girl thing 

Thank you so much for taking the time to stop and look at my blog today. I really do appreciate it and love to read any comments you may wish to make.
Bye for now
hugs
