Mothers Day - Darling Buds Snowdrop with Polkadoodles

Happy Tuesday everyone I hope that you are having a good week so far ! Brr its still a bit chilly here at the moment in the evenings and out of the sun but  the forecast for the end of the week currently says 27C on Friday !

Spring has definitely arrived and my small patch of daffodils and crocuses are in bloom - there were some snowdrops but these seem to have disappeared.

It's that time again when we launch a brand new 'Anything Goes' challenge over on the Polkadoodles Digi Choosday Blog so I hope you are going to join in and don't forget the amazing discount off all crafty printable downloads until midnight today!

The theme set for the DT this week is Mothers Day - not an easy time for lots of us whose Mums are no longer around so I decided to make a Thinking of you card featuring Snowdrop from the Darling Buds collection

My Mum used to love seeing all the spring flowers in her garden but especially the snowdrops.

I created a Faux Stepper card sized to fit a 5" x 7" envelope from a pale green cardstock  and chose co-ordinating papers from the Happy Cactus collection paper set 2

I love this style of card as its perfect to create a little scene and use pretty papers at the same time.  I have had a snowdrop die in my collection for many years and decided this would be the perfect addition to my card.

I hope that you like my card for today and will come back to see my next project

Hasta luego 👋 

Enjoy the rest of your day !
