Sweet Blossom

Sorry for the lack of posts, been  looking after my little nephew until last weekend and then my daughter had her graduation -  BA Hons in Spanish with French with a Diploma in Professional Practice (International), (she worked in a school in Linares, Spain for her placement year).

Recently sorted through all my crafty supplies and came across stamps that I had forgotten about and some that had never been used.

Made this card with Sweet Blossom from Whimsy Stamps - she is really cute and lovely to colour
