Spring flowers

This weeks challenge at Less is More is 'Spring' so I thought it had to be spring flowers, and so I chose this digi of tulips, coloured them and cut them out with my nestabilities and mounted them on red card scalloped nestabilities, then the fun began.... I have had my first try at circular text, which I did in Microsoft Publisher using the Papyrus font, it took a bit of playing to get the circle the correct size, but luckily the first time I printed it it was perfect.

  1. Great card Jose.
    Well done on the circular text, it suits the card perfectly.
    Maybe we should do a tutorial in MS Word on "Less is More" sometime.
    I love those tulips, they're such a neat flower!
    Great to see you again and see you next week!
