Amy Butler Spring Goodies

Ok, so its far from being anywhere near Spring......what with the temperature plummeting to near zero degrees, but a quick look on the Amy Butler website is enough to warm things up a bit.

A beautiful collection of nature inspired stationery.......

This is my favourite, the Lucky flowers journal. I love the printed graphics on the inside.


Also loving the graphical nature of the fabric designs, but I can't decide which collection I like more, Ohio Sky or Pink Dahlia?


Just need to save up those pennies so I can feed my fabric need.......... www.amybutlerdesign.com
