It's Almost Spring

One week from today, March 20th, will be the first day of spring.  There are so many signs that spring is right around the corner.  1.  This is my week of Spring Break.  2.  It is officially Daylight Savings Time.  3.  Trees are getting full of leaves and some are even blooming.  4.  Major sinus problems.

Here is a card that represents spring.

 I hand cut the tree trunk and used the GIVE A HOOT cartridge to cut the rest of the tree.

 The tulips are from the WALK IN MY GARDEN  cartridge.  The sky and tree were both embossed using the Cuttlebug. The ribbon I thought was just the perfect touch for the card.  The little butterfly I found a few weeks ago in the Easter stuff at HobbyLobby.  I added glitter glue to all of the tulips and leaves to make them pop.

  And the sentiment is from Scrappy Moms Stamps.
