Hello Dear Friends!
It's time once again for a new challenge over on the Double D Challenge Blog!
Here's today's theme:
First Signs of Spring
and here's an inspiration board created to help get you started . . .
Spring is such a 'refreshing' time of the year when everything wakes up from it's winter nap! So many flowers start to bloom, new babies show up in the pasture fields and I remember as a kid walking down through our pasture field and seeing all the dogwood trees coming into bloom. Ours were primarily the white dogwood and when all the oaks & maples started to bloom, it was beautiful to see all the POPS OF WHITE from the dogwoods scattered through out!!
So that is why I chose to use this older Impression Obsession dogwood stamp for the focus of today's card.
Remember, it's a random draw for the winner so it could be YOU!!
You'll want to be sure to pop over to the Double D Challenge Blog to see all the details and amazing samples offered up by our VERY TALENTED design team ladies!!
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Hope to see you at Double D!
As always . . .
That Dogwood image is beautiful and I love the pretty shades of pink! The frame gives that sweet little birdie a nice place to perch! This is lovely and it does brighten my day! Happy Spring!

ReplyDeleteHow pretty, those pinks just jump off the card. You have colored those dogwood blooms beautifully, and the frame is the perfect final touch. That little bird perched on the frame just makes me smile. LOVE it!!
