Keep calm...spring is here?

Well, I guess it's spring....somewhere anyway.   We actually have some bare patches, but there is still plenty of snow and ice that needs to melt.  Temperatures are hovering around the freezing mark, which is a huge improvement, but we still have a ways to go.


So this is how I spent my winter....ha ha ha!  Not too likely....I would have frozen to death.  It will be so nice to put all the sweaters away.   Today I've gone with water colours again, for this pretty stamp from Sparkle Creations.  Nice soft colours....still working on those warmer weather thoughts.

Supplies used:
Paper from Basic Grey - Euphoria collection
Spellbinders dies - Ovals, Lacy Ovals, and Marvelous Squares
Cheery Lynn die - City

Hope you have a wonderful day, and thanks for stopping by.
