The Paper Shelter DT - Spring Delights

Good Morning Folks!  I have a card to share with you today and it's for our weekly challenge over at The Paper Shelter.  This week we'd like to see your "Spring" creations.

For my card I have used the gorgeous new digi called "Spring Elves".  The backing paper is a digi that comes with the image and I've backed it onto kraft cardstock.  The butterfly is a die by Little Claire's and the bunting and corner are dies by La-La Land.

I have coloured the image in with my Copics and added some frantage for a bit of bling.  Hope my card has inspired you to want to join us this week over at The Paper Shelter.  Thanks for stopping by.  Lotsa luv, hugs xoxo

The dps I have used are from my stash so sadly I can't share with you where they're from.  The corner accents are a La-la Land die, the little tags are by LOTV and the flowers and ribbon are from Wild Orchid Crafts.
