Oldie But a Goodie ~ Spring is in the air

Happy Tuesday everyone, It's time for another challenge over at
Firstly a BIG thank you for your lovely comments in my last post.
Also thanks to everyone who took part in Debs "Add a heart" challenge
xXx
This fortnight it's my turn to pick a theme!
It's lovely to look out of the window & see all the new bulbs popping up & new growth forming in the trees,
so with this in mind, I would like to see
Spring is in the air
xXx
This fortnight the 1st of my top 3 will get to be our guest designer for April,
xXx
Here's my card, I can't believe I set the theme ~ then struggled so much with a card, I must have 4 images coloured, but just wasn't happy . So it was a mad rush at the 11th hour to get this one out. It's fairly simple but I am happy with the result!
xXx
I have used;
Sarah Kay ~ Precious Moments
Nestabilities ~ Ovals & Scalloped Ovals
SU ~ Tag & Tiny Phrases
 6 Petal Flower Punch
SU ~ Three Flower Punch
What's left of my E.LM branch punh (after I broke it)
Tim Holtz ~ Distress Inks
Brad, Button & Twine from stash
xXx
Thanks for looking.
