Fussy & Fancy Challenge # 113 Spring Colours

Hello and welcome to my blog! As you may have read on
 Fussy & Fancy Challenge Blog
our Spring Colours Challenge is being hosted by our lovely
Katharina
and sponsored by the
FUSSY AND FANCY GIRLS!
that would include me!
If you have arrived here from the talented Judy's blog then you are hopping in the right order, if not, please go back to the FUSSY & FANCY BLOG CHALLENGE to hop in the right order. 

Here is the card that I created for this fun Spring Colours Challenge

For me, Spring Colours is all about the flowers especially the bulbs that have been under the soil through the Winter months and suddenly they pop through and burst into beautiful coloured flowers, the first through in our garden are the daffodils but I look forward to the brightly coloured Tulips..so when I spotted these tulips in my silhouette design section I had to download them. I experimented with the colours. This card has been inspired by a very clever card that my Facebook friend Linda Page had made if you would like to know how the box was made you can find out on Linda's blog   here  her instructions are very clear and she makes it surprisingly easy ....so thank you Linda.
So having made my box I had to decorate all the small sections I used various Clarity silhouette stamps of outdoor scenes and added clouds and hills as I was creating a big yellow sun I decided that the beat sentiment for my card was another Clarity stamp ...'Sending you sunshine' The other surprise about this 3D box-card is that it folds flat



 and as the box is a 4" cube when it is flattened it slips into a standard 8"x8" envelope


As a special bonus for my followers old and new I am offering some blog candy!
I have included some diecut decoupage, lovely glittered and blinged butterflies, some pretty paper flowers and even the ribbon and tag are reusable.
To qualify you must be a follower and leave a comment

Thank you for visiting

Well that's all from me for tonight. I do hope you go on to complete our Blog Hop and maybe even enter this very special Fussy & Fancy Challenge yourself.
Good Luck xxx Annie

    WOW!!! This is gorgeous!!! I LOVE the box. I have never seen this before. What a fun idea! I can't believe it folds flat the way it does. That would be such a nice surprise for the recipient of this card! I, too, think of flowers when I think of spring. Thank you for this lovely inspiration.
    Smiles,
    Heather
