Spring Cleaning....no way!


Well, the weekend is nearly over.....where did it go!  How can time go by so fast, yet winter goes so slow.  Yesterday, it rained all day, leaving small lakes (too big for puddles) in the driveway and yard.  This morning we awoke to another covering of white! (sigh)  Soon it will be spring....

My card today is all about spring, and the fairytale called spring cleaning!    This image is from the Time to Clean set at Digital Delights, and in my fairytale she comes to my house and cleans out all the dust bunnies.  This then allows me time to enjoy my spring garden.  I can dream!

I've coloured her with Prismas, adding a few stickles.....as good fairies should have some sparkle!  The flowers are from a stamp set I just had to buy.......and now I've found them!  I've used a Nestie die to cut around the image, and a MS punch to make the lace border.

I hope you enjoyed my card and little story....and I'll be sure to let you know if my dream comes true!
