Lili of the Valley #47

Hi girls, welcome to my little blog. It's fantastic to have you visit. I hope you find something sweet on the eye and perhaps even inspire. You visit is very much appreciated.
If it wasn't for the fact that as I look out of the window I can still see the remnants of the snow and there are no leaves on the trees, I could be persuaded that it is summer outside. It is such a sunny day. Could we be in for a great Spring and Summer - we can only hope.
This card today is for the current Lili of the Valley challenge where they provided a fantastic sketch to follow. I used one of my new Lili of the Valley stamps "Wedding Couple". I fell in love with this image when I saw it used on some of your blogs and just had to get it. I coloured this beautiful pair using my Copics and used some Glimmer Mist to enhance. The papers are Bo Bunny's Back to Backs and the embellishments are all from my stash.
I enjoyed making this card and I really hope you like it. It would be much appreciated if you could find time to leave a comment telling me what you think of it. I find your views so helpful and encouraging and I love reading them. It also lets me know who has visited and if you are commenting for the first time I also have the opportunity to visit back and return the compliment.
Have a great crafting day and stay safe in whatever you do and wherever you go.
Hugs,
