Looking forward to Spring

There are signs that Spring may be coming. Warmer temperatures and the coming rains. My card today features Lilly of the Valley that I always think of in Spring. The die is Impression Obsession and the Easter die is from Simon Says. I'm not sure about the pattern paper, it was with other sheets of 6x6 paper that weren't from the same pad and just loose. It looks like Lawn Fawn.

Did you know by replacing potato chips with grapefruit as a snack you can lose up to 90% of what little joy you have left in your life?






Be kind to one another.

Very pretty and springy. My Mom had a bed of lilly of the valley. I remember how sweet it smelled.

Oh my goodness--absolutely adore this card, Brenda! The way you dry embossed that plaid paper is fabulous! Hubby happened to be sitting in the room so I started reading him a bunch of your jokes and we're both cracking up! Thanks for giving us a happy start to the day!

The dry embossed patterned paper is so pretty and the perfect background for your lovely Lily of the Vally flowers, Brenda. Hopefully Spring will be here soon. We are expecting snow tonight. We've not had much snow this year and tonight is getting late, but we will take all we can get for the mountains. xx

Lovely lily of the valley! I have a patch of them in my front garden - such a beautiful scent! A perfect flower for an Easter card!

The background looks embossed and is so pretty to show the lily of the valley! That reminds me that I need to go out to see if my lily of the valley is coming up. I'll take chips instead of grapefruit any day!
