The First Sign of Spring are the Crocuses coming up through the snow!!! They are a hardy flower aren't they?
My image is from the Fred She Said Collection of "Spring Flowers". This is actually the second in the series of 4-1/2" X 4-1/2" easel cards that I am doing with the set. I used the Spellbinders Eyelet Nestabilities to frame my image and the Fancy Tags for my Sentiment.
I colored my image in Copic Markers and outlined it in blue to match the blue in the DCWV Pocket Full of Posies Paper. I distress inked my edges to match the paper as well with sage distress ink. All the edges have been stickled and I used lots of pearls for accent. There is a hidden tag that pulls out to write a sentiment. For some reason, I just can't bring myself to write on these easel cards...lol
Punch Count - 6 (I think that is the smallest for me ever!!!) lol

Those crocuses are such a sweet reminder of Spring and warmer days ahead. This is just absolutely outstanding, Carol. I see why you don't want to write on the easel cards. You were so clever to make a hidden feature just for that purpose. Love this creation!!!
