Good morning everyone!! Where is all of this awful weather coming from, it's like winter outside so hopefully my Spring card will cheer you up!! 

All stamps are  Cute Companions clear stamps and are from a freebie stamp set in a mag, i know, can you believe these gorgeous stamps were free!!

I coloured with my Promarkers, DP is Prima's Almanac, ribbon from my stash and i used my Marianne D's small clock die, finished it all off with a banner using cut down skewers.

Tilda's Spring Bird

Well! I'm not sure if a Kookaburra is a Spring bird or not but it is on my card, lol!!

Before i share my card i would like to tell you what happened yesterday!! My son started filling his bath and decided to lie on his bed while he was waiting, and he dosed off!! Hubby found the bath overflowing and it came down into the downstairs loo, walls soaking and carpet flooded.And i would just like to say i din't shout or scream, i just mopped it up and told my Son that these things happen! How many times have you got bored of waiting for the bath to fill, sneaked off and came back just in time or too late!! Anyhoo!! I told him to fetch my wellies as i could not be bothered to keep going to the upstairs loo!! Only Joking!! He thought i was being serious, poor thing!!
