Goodbye Winter...hello Spring!

You know us card makers love an excuse to make a card for ANY occassion. So today I made a card to celebrate the return of SPRING....and goodbye old man winter! I am so happy to introduce Abby from Spesch Digital Stamps. She is just to happy to bring on spring too!


I had a Happy Spring stamp that I bought at Michaels a couple of years ago and so I stamped that in the forground of Abby. Then I just coloured up Abby with prismas and cut her out so I could place her in front of the spring image!


Inside I used little Abby again, and stamped a little snail image I had from the Karen Lockhart collection of Itty Bitty Stamps! Love those little stamps, they are so useful..as you can also use those cute little stamps for the fronts of envelopes.
Enjoy your first day of spring where ever you are...Marianne asked me if we had any flowers yet..not here. But hopefully soon! Have a wonderful weekend, and thank-you so much for taking time out of your day to come and visit!
