Have the happiest of days

Yay, it's Friday so that means it's a happy day!  And my card today is a cheery, fresh card - let's hope the weather in the UK follows suit!!  I got my inspiration from the gorgeous fresh cards by Vicky...


 
 



I made this card for this week's Pollycraft challenge for Easter and this month's Cupcake Craftroom challenge for fresh and new.  I used the digis papers from the Cupcake Cards & Craft Sweet Ginghams and matching co-ordinating solid papers (you can buy them here).  I coloured in those super sweet ducks (I think it was a freebie) from Pollycrafts with my Aqua ProMarkers and followed the sketch over at I ♥ ProMarkers. 

I's also like to enter my card into C.R.A.F.T. challenge for Easter.


Paper/cardstock: Bazzill kraft cardstock, Cupcake Cards & Craft Sweet Ginghams and matching co-ordinating solid papers
Stamps: Pollycrafts Follow the Leader (a freebie), My Favorite Things sentiment 
Mediums: Aqua ProMarkers
Accents: gingham ribbon from stash
Tools: Nestabilities square and scallop square dies

    Happy card indeed! Lovely fresh and springy, it makes me want to out and have a picnic at the waterside. I don't blame you for using Vicky's cards as inspiration, she's like the CAS queen! ;)
