In fact, most restrictions here were unexpectedly lifted last Saturday - all that's left pretty much is isolating if showing symptoms and masks on public transport and in stores. But I am still being careful!
I saw on the thread yesterday that Sandy mentioned never-ending dreariness. It can feel like that here too, heavy oppressive skies and no colour. I love the Spring flowers - drifts of cherry blossom and banks of daffodils, but especially the vivid yellow forsythia on bare branches, and the pop of blue from scilla (squill). I have used a very plain DP for the card front, and added my pop of blue with a coffee filter background layered behind it. My only yellow paper was paler, more like winter-flowering jasmine, so I sponged it with mustard seed DOX. I don't use the Susan's Garden florals that often because of the bulk, but I will spring for the extra postage to mail this.
I used a very old HA sentiment and added gems above it, and doodled a border.

WOW - this is SO effective with those flowers bursting free of all their constraints!!! Fabulous imagery and the CAS treatment makes it all the more poignant.

Sabrina your card is amazing with the die cut flowers. I love how your stamp appears to open up the center of the card to appear your flowers are popping through the card.
