Crafty Ann's Challenge #61 - Spring into spring

The time has come for another challenge over at Crafty Ann's Challenge Blog.  This fortnight the challenge is "spring into spring" so Crafty Ann is looking for spring or Easter themed projects.

 

Last year I decided when printing out digital images I would print out two of the same image because I was making a mess of so many and then having to re-print.  Now that I have two images printed out I rarely make a mistake so I then end up with extra cards.  This means I have not one but two cards to show for you today.  I have used Crafty Ann's new digital image of a vase of daffodils.  My favourite flowers are roses, followed by poppies and then followed by daffodils so I had to use this image.  I have coloured in with Promarkers, die-cut the image and chalked around the edge with a chalk ink pad.  The backing papers are all abstract papers from Crafty Ann's digi shop so I went for the colours yellow, orange and yellow to be spring-like.  The cards have been finished off with a sentiment, bow, Marianne Designs die-cut butterfly and ribbons.

Here are both cards side-by-side so you can see the subtle differences:
