Dreaming...

Good morning everyone!  Looks like we are going to have a nice sunny day, however, it's still a lot cooler than one would expect for the end of April.  As a result, the grass is still struggling to turn green, and the gardens.....well, nothing to be said there yet! 


So here I am again, with another card with a warm spring theme.  Sooner or later Mother Nature will come around!  This lovely image is from Just Inklined, and titled Park Entrance.  Once again, I used my copics, and I also added a scene behind the gate....adding a colourful sunset.  

The burgundy paper is a left over, after I'd cut out the centre for another card.  I had used the Spellbinders Marvelous Squares die, so I used a smaller one from the set for the white mat.

I need to be sending out my thank you cards now, to all those that helped me with the snow this winter.  I truly hope that is now finished!

Thanks for stopping by, and here's hoping you are having a lovely weekend.

  1. Such a lovely spring-like creation Joyce. We have been lucky and spring is here if full force. The honeysuckle is in full bloom and some of the roses are out. This is a month or so early for us. Hope your weather does catch-up soon.
