Greetings. With luck the sun is shining where you are. Definitely a no show here, with lots of wind and rain, maybe even snow flurries tomorrow. I'll be venturing out shortly, winter coat and all, as I just realized I'm out of cofee....heaven forbid!
No colouring from me today, but I made really good use of my dies. The butterflies were in my stash, a gift from my daughter's craft room, and I've been waiting for just the right card to use them. I have added a little sparkle and bling, so that they co-ordinate with the sparkly background paper. Anything to make the day seem brighter!
Other supplies:
Patterned paper from First Edition -
Summer Breeze collection
Cheery Lynn die -
Ankara Lace
Whimsy dies -
Birthday Sentimentables and
Corner Dies Set
Thanks for stopping by, and hopefully Mother Nature takes a peek too. Just want to remind her that it is supposed to be spring! ha ha
