Has Spring sprung?

Good morning all and hope that your morning is sunny like it is here - does this mean Spring has finally arrived? I won't hold my breath - but it is lovely to have the sunshine!  I'm going away for a night with a friend next week (for a concert and some shopping!) and I can more or less guarantee that it'll rain then lol! We're off to Glasgow - we've been a few times before and love it! It's a great city centre, lovely buildings, great shopping & places to eat (I sound like a tourist brochure lol!) - and we're off to see Il Divo at the SECC.  And I should perhaps confess that we've seen them a few times (about 6 or 7 actually!). Seems a bit strange being groupies at our age....  But whoever we were off to see, it's just nice to have a girly getaway!

Anyway, I have a little card to share with you today that I made with the new cd release from Polkadoodles 'Fredericka'

This image is 'Tilly' and she looks very thoughtful!  I've coloured her with promarkers and flexmarkers


The blue backing paper was a freebie and the lovely 'wordy' paper is from EK Success 'Inspirables'. I've added some distress ink, some twine ribbon & brads from stash with some twine.  Quite a simple layout but I think it looks ok.  
Do pop over to Polkadoodles and have a look at the great offers - and this fantastic new cd 

***Fredericka - Mini CD collection

Back soon, 
Kim x 

I'm entering this card into the following challenges:-
TuesdayAlchemy - monochromatic pastels
TimelessTuesdays - two or more ribbons (ribbon & twine)
