In Need of a Little Spring
I’m getting so sick of winter. We had over 30″ of snow Friday and Saturday, a plow finally came through tonight so we can get out. Mind you, the plow was not exactly “industrial-sized.” There are still quite a few inches of packed ice on the road, but at least we can get out…with four-wheel drive. But more snow/rain/ice mix (who knows) is predicted for Tuesday/Wednesday. This is way more nastiness than we usually get here. U-G-H. I am just not a winter person. So I’m posting something a little more springy today.
Have a Blooming Good Day!
I’ve used Have a Blooming Good Day, one of the new Pure Innocence sets from My Favorite Things. (The set must have sold out already as it isn’t showing in the store, but I’m sure more will be in soon.)
As I did previously, I drew in little socks and colored with Copics. The little girl’s dress is paper-pieced, and I added a tiny brad in the center of the flower.
I kept the inside very simple, carrying over the little flower portion of the focal image.
Next up is a new Jolinne. :) Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a great day!

I adore this image. I went to buy it a couple days ago and like you said - nada! I think I’ll see if Lindsey has it in her store. Your card is wonderful - it’s getting to be a long winter and this is a good reminder sooner or later the weather will get better.
