Just Because

For the month of March, this was our prompt at Card Chain Challenge.





I had my own challenges with this one as I got a head cold and the Government asked those who were sick (even if it wasn't suspected coronavirus) to stay at home.  I am reliant on someone who lives 40 minutes away to do any grocery shopping, etc so I had to wait until groceries were delivered to me before I could ask that person to go to the postal shop to post it.  So, I was pleasantly surprised when the card took 8 days to reach United Kingdom from New Zealand, which meant it just arrived in March.



I have used a stencil and some Bo Bunny Glitter Paste to create the right hand piece.  The left hand piece is an offcut piece of patterned paper.  I stamped a sentiment in the bottm corner.  I added washi tape which matched the colours for March over the joins between sections.  Finally, I die cut a leaf and flower spray using a die from Tattered Lace.

I would like to enter:
