I used scraps to make the background which I had seen Shoe Girl (Lisa) make a few weeks ago. After laying the wonky cut strips onto a base layer, I ran the whole thing through the Big Shot with an embossing folder to add some texture and dimension. I've had this partial pack of coasters on my desk forever and I decied to use one of them on top of the background. The lilacs and butterflies on the coaster look like spring to me, thus the sentiment. Thanks for taking a peek!

You have used such pretty colours, Claudia, the bg looks lovely and the floral coaster image is beautiful! I really like this sentiment by PB - it looks like it’s hand written~

So pretty! It's been snowing lightly all morning here in the hinterland, so spring seems a distant dream - but this cheery card gives one hope...

A gorgeous coaster and your repurposed it BEAUTIFULLY, Claudia. A stunning card....the bg doesn't distract from your circular panel at all.....it and its embossing enhance it.
