I'm not so sure, Brent. We still have a lot of ice here in MN and it seems like flowers are SO far away! Anyway, your lovely background tells me there's hope... I love the way you presented this.

You've made a delightful card with these colors! I love the little scene you created and the sunny flowers in the base layer. That sentiment is just perfect for your card! Faved : )

The promise of spring--something I always look forward to. I love the DS paper you created and the contrast of the flowers against that bare tree! Very nice!
