Thanks Julie, I really enjoyed the DIY Craft Land website. It's probably not hard to discern my prompt...wow, that vintage armoire with the dandelions painted inside was a stop in my tracks... such cool theme!
My wonderful vintage French window is a B Line Designs. I have used it many times and am always happy to ink it up again. I used acetate and Stazon for the windows, cutting them open so the dandelion (Serenity Stamps) would show through. Love love the Craft Consortium 'Grunge Papers' that yellow and the background blue black were just perfect. I have had the sentiment for eons...sometimes auditioning it for other cards...happy it worked for this card. The 'go' was added above the bloom.
The background stamp is a clear stamp from American Crafts. I used Smokey Gray and then a bit of Cobalt ep at randoms spots to darken it just a little.
I'd love to hear what is beckoning you outside your window! My garden is whispering my name...come prune me, pull me up, feed me, rake me, dig me up...it's never ending really. I might even find a few dandies to pull and blow some wishes...
Thanks for stopping by!

Artistic window frame, Susan, and the sentiment gives one a lot to think about! Mike, the 2 mini poodles and I walked about 2 1/2 miles today because it's so nice to be out there enjoying the birds singing and seeing the flowers blooming. We are also watching a neighbor's chickens and peeps for a few days. We gathered 10 eggs today! This is my favorite time of year~

I LOVE your beautifully inspired window and the delightful way you see your world, Susan. A perfect capture of joy and imagination...so YOU. I inherited 3 dogs last year. We spent our first winter in our new home. The snow has melted and the grass is greening up, but you can imagine what was beckoning beyond my window😕 So with a doggie bag over one hand and a plastic grocery bag in the other, I got to work and filled two grocery bags, but now my mood more closely resembles the sunshine and blue skies your cabinet brings to mind and I’m ready for flowers, even if they’re dandelions😊
