A host of golden daffodils?

For this card I've used the sketch on Papertake 36:

This week's challenge on Daring Cardmakers is 'a host of golden daffodils' - my apologies to the team that, because I used one of my favourite spring stamps, my card has only one daffodil and not a host of them! I hope I'm forgiven.

As spring (we hope),St. Patrick's day and Easter are on the horizon, there are quite a few challenges around still that are asking for cards reflecting spring colour, particularly green, so I'm linking for:

Rosie-Dee 66: 'think spring'
Pink elephant 58: 'spring'
Stampotique designers 3: 'spring has sprung'
Tanda teaser 137: 'simply spring'
Stampin' B 49: 'spring or Easter card'
Theme Thursday: 'spring'
Susie's sassy 10: 'Easter'
Sew many challenges 7: 'Easter'
Cupcake 82: 'going green'
Incy wincy 33: 'green'
Kelly Jo colour chef 43: 'dark green light green, cream or white (I hope I'm forgiven for the yellow daffodil! - I'll try and do another one later with just green and white/cream)
Inky impressions 31: 'think green'
Penny's: 'green for St Patty's day'
Pixie cottage 11: 'the colour green'
Clearly I stamp 9: 'think green'
Raise the bar 8: 'go green'
Crafting pot 14: 'let your sham rock!' - gold, green or combo
Cupcake inspiration (Hope stamps eternal) 50
Crafty angels 25: 'butterflies'
Flutter by Wednesday 100: 'open - include butterfly, fairy or angel'
Charisma cardz 10: 'beautiful butterflies'
Magical crafts 10: 'things with wings' - butterflies on the left hand paper

The paper on the right hand side is BG urban couture and the other papers are Craft creations. The daffodil stamp is funstamps coloured with copics, label made on the Dymo letratag.

  7. Wow, you participate in a lot of the blog challenges. That's great. Doing these Stampotique challenges for me is the first time I've done any blog challenges, and I'm liking it. I was just saying that I should try a couple more. Which of all yours do you like the best if you don't mind me asking? Love your card, very spring like, and who needs a bunch of daffodils when you have such a beautiful one all by it's lonesome?
