Spring...

Hi Friends!

Has spring sprung where you are?  It surely hasn't sprung here yet!  It looks gorgeous with blue skies and sun shining, but the temps have been way below normal.  It's been in the 30's.  The normal temps for this time is 50's.  But, a kind word from a friend can really make one feel warm inside, don't you think?  I received a phone call from a friend this morning.  What a sweetheart she is, so this card is going out to her.  And, here is my card...


I'm entering this card over at Simon Says.  The theme is spring.  I do love daffodils and can't wait to see them when they bloom.  The stamp set that I used is from from PTI.  I colored the image with copics.  The sentiment was stamped on vellum and adhered with sewing around the border.  I added a tiny bow for added interest.  An easy card, but I really enjoyed coloring this beautiful daffodil.  Thanks so much for viewing my card today!  Take care and have a wonderful day!

Hugs,
Maria

    We've had some temps in the 70's but going to go down in the 50's for the weekend. Yuck!

  2. It's a lovely spring card and your friend will love it! Your coloring is perfect; the daffodil looks so real! We had a few spring days but it's chilly here. I guess we all need some sunshine and warmer days :) Take care!
