Magnolia DT + Dutch Dare 'Green + Yellow' Challenge

Here is another card using more scrummy stamps from the new Magnolia Easter Collection 09, which I have based on this week's Dutch Dare challenge which is green and yellow. This is not my usual choice of colours but I am quite pleased with how the card has turned out.
Yesterday was a sad day as we had to have one of our cats put to sleep, she had reached the grand old age of 18 and a half. I will miss her a lot as she always sat upstairs with me while I was crafting.Supplies
